Unheard Cuts
» Entire, Unedited Interview (mp3, 1:22.23)
Where to cut? Where to edit? We couldn't include all of Krista's interview with the Sister Chittister. So here's your chance to listen to their entire, unedited conversation.
» Girlhood Dreams Fulfilled (mp3, 4:16)
Chittister thought she'd given up her dream to be a writer once she joined the Benedictines. A life of strict obedience resulted in sacrificing dreams — only to find them again in other forms.
Selected Writings
We present transcriptions of two speeches Chittister gave to the National Catholic Educational Association and the Women's Ordination Worldwide conference:
» "Leading the Way: To Go Where There Is No Road and Leave a Path"
» "Discipleship for a Priestly People in a Priestless Period." |
