Patricia
This study completes what was begun in Part I. Each woman is on her own journey and likely will find herself somewhere on the pages of these books. Of all the Endow studies, the Discover Your Dignity series is easy to undertake and provides an opportunity for women to share with one another about their own life journeys, challenges, sorrows, and joys.
Navigating the study
Although there are 8 chapters, we recommend a minimum of 12 weeks to complete this study. It is not expected that all the questions should be answered in one session or at all. Remember quality over quantity. Let the Holy Spirit guide you!
The commentary for this study was written by Sister Lydia Allen, RSM (Psychologist), Sister Prudence Allen, RSM, Ph.D. (Philosopher), Sister Moira Debono, RSM, S.T.D. (Theologian), and Sister Marie Paul Lockerd, RSM, D.O. (Medical Doctor).
