The era of spiritual silence is over. The era of spiritual healing is now.

With the rise of Christian nationalism, the visibility of police brutality, and the continued suppression of those who work against deep-seated wrongs perpetuated by institutions, the challenge of standing up for what is right has never been more important. For Sister Karen Lueck, a member of the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration, it was a calling. But where to begin?

The Green Thread is a spiritual investigation born from decades of wrestling with that question. Blending research into the history of the Catholic Church, her Saxon ancestors, feminist philosophy, and the small acts of resilience and hope threaded throughout centuries, The Green Thread chronicles Lueck's own journey through confronting shame, healing intergenerational trauma, and facing white privilege, and, in doing so, shines a light for others.

The Green Thread is a call to action. Learn how to reclaim your spiritual authority, find your voice, and join with others in proclaiming goodness and justice for all. There has never been a better time to begin than right now.
