  • Book cover of Hiding in Plain Sight
    Molly Wolf

     · 1998

    Failing to notice God in daily life may be what keeps us from experiencing the full joy of God's presence. In Hiding in Plain Sight, Molly Wolf shows that, by relating God-talk to the practical and the everyday, we can find love, joy, and God right where we are: "hiding in plain sight." These short, lively pieces pull together the sacred and the human, looking for God in such ordinary things as lilacs, mud season, turtles, dancing ants, a handful of sheep's wool, the turn of the season, and plumbing?all places where Wolf suggests God can be found "not locked in the tabernacle, not hiding behind a mass of complex concepts, not absent from our pain, not out of reach, but here with us, in us, and among us, in the laundry, the scutwork, and the landscape we walk through." Intelligent, often humorous, always inspiring, Hiding in Plain Sightis the perfect book to keep handy for reflection. Essays are included under the following headings "Herbs of Grace," "Staring at the Cat Bowl," "'Shall We Gather at the River,'" "Three Landscapes," "Come Wind, Come Weather," "Portraits, Chiefly Fictional," "Living in Sin," "The Hand of the Potter," "Outward and Visible," "Living into Grace," and "The Spinner."

  • Book cover of White China
    Molly Wolf

     · 2005

    "White china" is Molly Wolf’s personal shorthand for the kind of religious language and ideas that often seem abstract and daunting. Those of us who don’t know how to break the code of words like hermeneutics are left to struggle in a landscape of abstraction and purity, intimidated and uncomfortable with our ability to handle them. We might mispronounce the words or use them wrongly, and then what would people think of us? They’re pure like white china; we might drop and break them or get them dirty. And they certainly aren’t something we can consume–who can eat china? In this beautifully written collection, Molly Wolf serves up her unique brand of what she calls God-Talk. She takes the language of Christian faith and religion, sets it in the context of her keen observations of everyday experience, and unpacks it, opening it up to make it real and close up and important. Revel in Wolf’s juicy metaphors and rejoice in the fact that she serves up a feast for all those who hunger to eat.

    The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between child sexual abuse, betrayal, dissociative amnesia, and general autobiographical memory loss. It was hypothesized that child sexual abuse variables would act as risk factors for dissociative amnesia. It was also hypothesized that these variables would be significantly related to betrayal, and that betrayal would mediate relationships between abuse characteristics and dissociative amnesia, and both betrayal and dissociative amnesia would mediate the relationships between abuse characteristics and general autobiographical memory loss. This retrospective survey was conducted online, and garnered a sample of 297 participants. The results of this study suggest that while the majority of the abuse variables had direct effects on betrayal, they did not indirectly affect dissociative amnesia or autobiographical memory loss through betrayal. However, abuse variables (specifically age at onset of abuse) not only had a direct effect on dissociative amnesia, but also had indirect effects on autobiographical memory loss through dissociative amnesia. These results have both research and clinical implications, in terms of both prevention and intervention with survivors of child sexual abuse.
