Sharon Garlough Brown tells the moving story of four strangers as they embark together on a journey of spiritual formation:
Hannah, a pastor who doesn't realize how exhausted she is.
Meg, a widow and recent empty-nester who is haunted by her past.
Mara, a woman who has experienced a lifetime of rejection and is now trying to navigate a difficult marriage.
Charissa, a hard-working graduate student who wants to get things right.
You're invited to join these four women as they reluctantly arrive at a retreat center and find themselves drawn out of their separate stories of isolation and struggle and into a collective journey of spiritual practice, mutual support and personal revelation.
Along the way, listeners will be taken into a new understanding of key spiritual practices and find tangible support for the deeper life with God.
If you want to travel this journey with others, you will find a group study guide and book club resources at sensibleshoesclub.com.

The narrator does a great job catching the essence of each character verbally. Each voice is spot on with each woman. My next step is to get the study guide.

Based on my own experience of meeting with a spiritual director, I’d say this story is an accurate picture of how spiritual direction works. Sensible Shoes illustrates not only the various forms of prayer that are often utilized, but also how God woos wounded people into a loving, intimate relationship with himself and others. And it reveals the internal dialogue and mental gymnastics we Christian women often go through in order to hide from each other, our painful past experiences, and our sins that we often refuse to see as sin. And it does all this without the sappy characters that are often found in formulaic “Christian women’s fiction.” Yay! The characters here are well drawn, multifaceted, and true to their own natures, even as they grow. I could relate to each of them in different ways.
Can’t wait to read the other books in this series!
