The Secular Saint

"I believe it was Thomas Merton who referred to Joan as a secular saint. What she has always meant for me through her life and her music is her belief that we are capable of rising above our mean, petty selves and being truly alive and human if only we will listen to our better selves and be willing to embrace that same self in others. God is God and we remain in that image and can, with effort, regain that likeness. Joan has and she invites us to the journey with all that she is and does. I am proud to live in her time and in her light."
Disappointing

"Disappointed in this album. She is not sounding as clear and pure. Found the selection and version of the songs lackluster. Did not pack a punch."
