“Reminiscent of Rumi.”
“Prayers to Sophia is the perfect companion to The Star in My Heart. Ten years later (and not a moment too soon), it is a deep, bold, evocative book of prayers to Divine Wisdom. Conscious, personal, and reminiscent of Rumi, Joyce Rupp helps open us to the Divine Feminine within us all.”

“What a beautiful book! The wisdom within works its wonders on the landscape of the heart, revealing how deeply we are all immersed in the Wisdom we call God.”
Sr. Miriam Therese Winter
Author of Woman Prayer, Woman Song“Eloquent.”
“Prayers to Sophia is an eloquent response of love to Divine Wisdom. Joyce’s own vulnerability in these prayers add a beauty and a feminine voice which expresses all our longing for Divine presence as the Feminine.”
