Canonized by the Roman Catholic Church in May 2012, declared the “first Protestant” by a follower of Martin Luther, and ignored for centuries after her death in 1178. Who is this woman? Hildegard of Bingen, a herald of the divine feminine, church reformer, green prophet, and critic of patriarchy everywhere. The November selection for the Wednesday Noon Book Group is Hildegard of Bingen: A Saint for Our Times: Unleashing Her Power in the 21stCentury by Matthew Fox. Pick up your copy in the Parish Book Store and learn what this remarkable woman has to say to us today.
