River Jordan

With a unique mix of passionate revelation and quirky humor, River Jordan takes us on a journey through her Southern childhood to her present-day life as a novelist. Her stories run the gamut from dancing disco nights and midnight desert rides to surprise visitations with the Divine. Included are comforting letters to personal friends and loved ones about faith, death, heartbreaks and their futures. Confessions of a Christian Mystic is a highly original work about an extraordinary faith that never loses touch with current culture or everyday realities. Jordan invites us to join her for her wild ride searching for the holy mysteries of God. *An established literary figure, speaker, teacher, and radio host. Jordan’s work has been featured by: Publishers Weekly, Booklist, NPR\'s Book Talk, Guideposts Magazine, and The Southern Literary Review. She has written four novels and a work of nonfiction: Praying for Strangers: An Adventure of the Human Spirit. Jordan travels the country speaking on The Power of Story, is a regular contributor to Psychology\'s Today\'s Spirituality blog, and is the host and producer of the literary radio program, Clearstory, which airs from Nashville, TN where she makes her home.
