Blending her own experiences with an intimate grasp of contemplative spirituality, Sue Monk Kidd relates the passionate and moving tale of her spiritual crisis at midlife, when life seemed to have lost meaning. Kidd's longing for hasty escape from the pain ultimately yielded to a discipline of "active waiting."
Comparing her experience to that of a chrysalis on a wintry tree branch, Kidd reflects on the fact that the soul is often symbolized as a butterfly. The simple cocoon, a living parable of waiting, becomes an icon of hope for transformation. Kidd charts her ascent from the depths and offers a new understanding of the passage away from the false self - one based upon others' expectations - to the true self of God's unfolding intention. Kidd's wise, inspiring book will help those struggling with doubt to recognize the opportunity to "dismantle old masks and patterns and unfold a deeper, more authentic self." When the Heart Waits has been embraced by seekers from many backgrounds and has become an enduring classic in Christian spirituality.
Sue Monk Kidd is the award-winning author of Dance of the Dissident Daughter and God's Joyful Surprise, as well as the best-selling novels The Secret Life of Bees and The Mermaid Chair. She has written for numerous publications, including Reader's Digest and the Atlanta-Journal Constitution and had a regular assignment with Guideposts. She lives outside of Charleston, South Carolina.
"As I read her book, Sue Monk Kidd became a companion to me. I love having her walk with me on my journey." - Eugene Peterson, author of Living the Message
