Seasons of the Soul: On Becoming Who You Are

One year after stepping away from her vocation and career as an author, Michelle DeRusha was walking through the tallgrass prairie near her home, observing the subtle signs of early spring, when she felt the first stirrings of her soul beginning to reawaken. In that moment, after a year of winter dormancy and retreat, as spring peepers trilled a symphony from the greening bluestem, Michelle realized that creation and the cycle of the seasons have much to teach us about living in alignment with the seasons of our own souls.

Seasons of the Soul invites you to come alongside as Michelle leans close to her surroundings on the Great Plains of Nebraska, listening to and observing what creation and the cycle of the seasons have to teach us about our deepest selves. As the seasons unfurl month after month, always revealing something new, we too are invited to explore the fresh insights this ancient metaphor can and will reveal about ourselves and our own spiritual journal of personal transformation toward becoming.

Weaving descriptive observations of the natural world with personal narrative, insights into spiritual formation and commentary on societal and cultural expectations and written with candor, authenticity and vulnerability, Seasons of the Soul offers a path and companionship to those yearning to live as their truest, God-created selves.
