From Nun to Priest   From Nun to Priest
By: Joanne Howe
$10.99
ISBN # 0892254513

"After 19 years as a nun in the Roman Catholic church. Joanne Howe's burning desire to know God's will led her to study the Bible in depth. She found that the Bible is the only source she can depend on to reveal God's will.

Through her study of Scripture, Joanne realized that all Christians are equal in God's sight; we are all spiritual priests before God. No longer does one man have to intercede for another, but Christ, as the High Priest, intercedes for all.

In From Nun to Priest, Joanne compares teachings and traditions from her Roman Catholic background with the teachings God has revealed through the Bible. The easy-to- understand summaries of scriptural leaching in the book cover a wide range of doctrinal issues.

Joanne Howe replaced the physical robes of her order with the spiritual robes of a priest of God. We are called by God to join that same priesthood."
