In Soul Friends, New York Times bestselling author Dr. Leslie Parrott explores the stages of a woman's spiritual journey, showing how true 'soul friendships' can shape, grow and deepen your faith.

Leslie explains the four stages of spiritual growth which all women travel through again and again: quest, calling, crisis and communion. Throughout Soul Friends, she shows how God brings us 'soul friends' to help in every stage of the journey. Sometimes from predictable places, like small groups and friendships, and sometimes out of the blue.

Dr. Leslie Parrott is a marriage and family therapist, and the author of Drops of Rain and God Made You Nose to Toes. She is also co-author with her husband, Les, of many bestselling books, including Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts. Together they are co-directors of the Centre For Relationship Development at Seattle Pacific University.

Whichever stage of the journey you find yourself in, you need 'soul friends' to help you move forward. This book uses story, poetry and reflection to remind us all of the intimate, intricate, faith-forming work God does through the gift of the women he places in our lives.
