Finding Time for Serenity: Every Woman's Book of Days

By Barbara Cawthorne Crafton

Book Overview

Almost every woman knows the press of busy days - days when we can't keep track of what we've done (or haven't done), much less find five minutes to rest. These daily meditations from best-selling author Barbara Crafton - wife, grandmother, priest, retreat leader, and spiritual director - will help women restore the balance and bring perspective into their daily lives.

Crafton explores the things women know well: bags under the eyes, people who monopolize meetings, office politics, middle-age pride, kids leaving home, faith, love, destiny, the impossible images women's magazines perpetuate, friendship, and many more. Here she becomes the wise and funny friend every woman needs every day.

Customer Reviews

Very helpful book!

Barbara Crafton's style is wise and real. I find myself reading more than one meditation per day because they are so good.

A must for all women who try to do it all!

I won Finding Time for Serenity at a bridge game. I brought it home that evening, read that day's entry, and was hooked for the year! Barbara Cawthorne Crafton's amazing insight into being a mother/wife/daughter/good person is heartwarming. What wisdom she shares with us! I'd love to have lunch with her!
