Money As Sacrament

 

book coverToo taboo to discuss in public, but central to many private conversations, money and the power it has over us is always on our minds. In Money As Sacrament, Adele Azar-Rucquoi examines how money affects women's outlook on life, relationships, confidence, independence, and inner peace. As a former nun who grew up running the cash register at her immigrant father's grocery, the wife of a formerly homeless man, and the unsuspecting heir to a substantial inheritance later in life, Azar-Rucquoi's defining life experiences have transformed how she relates to money and helped her devel0p keen perspective and uncommon wisdom on how money impacts lives. In Money As Sacrament, Azar-Rucquoi looks at how women are deeply conflicted by wealth -or the lack thereof- and encourages us to recognize its inherently multi-faceted meaning. In this thoughtful and provocative collection of some fifty stories about women who grapple with such issues, Azar-Rucquoi inspires us all to finally make peace with the mighty dollar.

“Money As Sacrament is, in some ways, a radical book.  The author examines her concept of money as something sacred. 
It is novel concept,... and some might find it profane. 
But after years of thought, study, discussion and prayer, she concludes that money can be considered a gift from God, a means to grace.”

-Jean Patteson,
Orlando Sentinel

 

 
"Money as Sacrament is an everywoman narrative. Not far into the text I forgot about Adele as a writer.
 
Instead, I was engulfed in an almost eerie understanding that this work is at Adrienne Rich’s door.” 

-Betty Ann W,
