In these challenging times, it is important to connect with friends. Melissa Harris is such a friend. Reading her heart's wisdom flows gently into me; it is as if we're sitting at the table together and in a deep conversation of truth. I find I am smiling and agreeing...but most of all feeling better for having shared time with her.

A deeply moving exploration of our sacred essence, 'Where Our Humanity Meets Our Divinity' offers profound insights into the interconnectedness of our human and divine natures.
James Miller, Founder, Adamantine® Yoga
This book is such a wise, beautiful and tender invitation to come home to our humanity, to embrace the mess and majesty of our life's experiences and let ourselves be deeply shaped and transformed by them that we may recognize the divinity that resides within us right here and now, exactly as we are.

I was happy to be one of Melissa Harris’s guides through her seminary training. She wrote much of her book after tending to the needs of her dying father, a task that would undoubtedly open anyone's inner eyes to a deeper perspective. She looked in many directions and found traditional religions rule-bound and dogma-ridden. At the same time, the mystical branches of various spiritualities opened up for her, and us all, glimpses into the beyond within. Melissa has taken a deep dive into the mystical in herself and the world and brought back a number of treasures to share. Enjoy!

I am a Senior Minister and people come to me with broken tender hearts because social/political issues are tearing them apart from their relationships with people they care for. This is a book of answers...a book of honest reflections...a book of hope and direction. Melissa Harris writes with an authentic style that represents her true self. It isn't a book you read and put on the shelf...it is a book that helps guide you and invites you into practicing a deeper look into matters of Spirit. She is the friend you have been waiting for...

I love the questions asked. I love how it made my mind instantly start searching and questioning. These words are eloquent. I would give anything to sit in a quiet, beautiful forest, talking and listening with Melissa about this book…every single sentence.

In a world torn apart by binaries and polarities, Melissa offers a radical insight: We are all BOTH human and divine. A delightful journey for seekers and questioners of all traditions.

This book is brave and brilliant.
Morgan Rivers
Where Our Humanity Meets Our Divinity is an antidote for our suffering world and articulates the experience many of us are living but may not be fully conscious of. Deeply insightful, honest, and long-overdue, this book is a way forward in the wake of misunderstandings in Western Christian tradition.
