Description
Breathing Space is the tale of Heidi Neumark and the Hispanic and African-American Lutheran church-Transfiguration-that took a possibility calling on a pastor from a starkly different background. Regardless of living and dealing in a milieu of overwhelming poverty and violence, Neumark and the congregation encounter much more powerful forces of hope and renewal.
This story of a community creating space for brand spanking new life and breath may be the tale of a young woman-working, raising her children, and struggling for non secular breathing space. Through poignant, intimate stories, Neumark charts her journey alongside her parishioners as pastor, church, and community grow in wisdom and in combination enjoy transformation.
