by The Judith W. Lethin (Author)

Judith Lethin's tremendous spirit, love for all beings, humor, and compassion fill her memoir like a cup of communion wine. Her stories-which flow from her 'cowgirl' beginnings to her community service as a healer to her long devotion as "church lady" along the lower Yukon River-are infused with wisdom learned from Alaska Native elders and cultural practices, A Wonderful-Terrible God is a book about faith that is, at its heart, an exploratory and rewarding journey into the many ways of knowing.

-Nancy Lord, author of Fishcamp and Beluga Days, former Alaska Writer Laureate

A beautifully articulated memoir blending Reverend Lethin's family history and her healing work in Alaskan villages. In her writing she pays tribute to Alaska Native Elders, past and present, showcasing their wisdom, strength and resilience. Many from Alaska will recognize their loved ones, respectfully remembered through Reverend Lethin's writing that engages both poignancy and humor.

-Beth Ginondidoy Leonard, Research Professor of Indigenous Studies, Alaska Pacific University
