“Such a powerful thing to provide children a connection to G-d as Mother. This feminine aspect of G-d as nurturer — love, communion, connection, can provide a little girl with a personal bridge to the divine. When my daughter, Casey, was little she asked if G-d could be a Mother as well as a Father. She often referred to G-d using female descriptions and it let her relate to her prayer life in a very strong way. Little by little that was socialized out of her and she stopped seeing herself in this blessed image. I know that the ability to see herself in relation to the feminine divine made a difference. I hope to share this book with all my nieces and nephews. What a special gift!”  Dr. Esmilda Abreu-Hornbostel
 

“Why Isn’t God a Girl? is a Christian empowerment to girls/women and anyone who has felt that they weren’t made in God’s image.  Sophy’s quest takes the reader on a journey that challenges what we as Christian’s have just assumed to be one way.  This book embraces all images under God and looks at how wonderfully different we can be while sharing a common bond of spiritual faith.  I am so excited to have a book that my daughters can read that will empower them on their spiritual journey.”  Ms. Danielle Treuberg

“Mother Diana’s passion for the Gospel and the inclusive message of Jesus has sparked her pastoral response to girls searching for their place in God’s plan.  Her book helps girls and boys to discover God’s feminine image in which women are created.  She places the characters of her book in the interfaith communities in which so many of us live and work.  Parents, teachers and members of the clergy will find in her phenomenal book a resource for helping people to discover the deep truth of God as our Mother in a simple lesson.”  The Rev. Peter DeFranco
