"In this nonfiction debut, Cunningham recounts both her lifelong spiritual quest and her ongoing spiritual questions. Her journey takes her from her childhood church, with its ornate liturgy, to the silence of Quaker meeting; from her ordination as an interfaith minister to an eclectic, earth-centered community where she served as priestess before becoming a hermit, of sorts, making a church of her own backyard.

Autorenporträt
Novelist and poet Elizabeth Cunningham is best known for The Maeve Chronicles, a series of award-winning novels featuring a Celtic Mary Magdalen. The descendant of generations of Episcopal priests, Cunningham grew up in a small upstate New York town next door to her church and an overgrown, enchanted wood and has spent her life writing stories traversing the worlds of scripture and fairytales. After resisting the temptation to follow in her forefather’s footsteps to become the first woman in a line of priests, she was ordained as an interfaith minister and counselor in midlife. My Life as a Prayer is her debut work of nonfiction. She lives in the valley of the Mahicantuck (the river that flows both ways, aka the Hudson) on land that was home to the Lenape.
