LA JOLLA–Warwick’s Bookstore will host storyteller, therapist, and local author Terry Laszlo-Gopadze, who will discuss and sign her book The Spirit of a Woman.
The event includes special appearances by book contributors Diane Bock, Alison Norman, and Suni Paz, as well as a short performance by singer/songwriter Suni Paz.
The Spirit of a Woman is a celebration of courageous women living spiritual lives in challenging circumstances. They are spiritual optimists and activists. Some have used the backgrounds of their cultures and religious traditions to lead richer, more meaningful lives. Some have moved from one faith to many faiths. Others have left tradition behind to encounter spirit in new and wonderful ways. And each of them sees life as a sacred trust.
The women who wrote the stories in this book come from many nations, ages, and personal histories. They have encountered the difficulties that are part of a fully lived life, and they have seen them in the light of eternity and the wholeness of creation. Instead of fleeing the unknown, they have honored the mystery and faced fear with faith. They see closed doors are openings to new choices and possibilities.
They tell us how love and prayer, forgiveness and hope, dance and serving others have transformed and healed them. They invite us to live our dreams and speak our truths, and when we have read their stories, we will know that we can.
The book signing begins at 7:30 p.m. August 4 at Warwick’s Bookstore,
This event is free and open to the public, although in order to be signed, the author’s current book must be purchased from Warwick’s
