“Darlene Pinter has been living a grace-filled life with God, and growing in that grace. How wonderful it is that now she is sharing her insights and discoveries and passing them on. I know that what she now offers to a broader readership is “worthwhile” in the most generous sense of the word.”
Luci Shaw, author/poet, “The Generosity,” and “The Thumbprint in the Clay”
“I have known Darlene Pinter for years, and my respect and admiration for her and her work and presence in the world just keeps growing. Whether it’s her writing — which is clear, honest and lovely — or her careful attentiveness in conversation and journeying together, she is a voice to trust and a friend to keep.”
Karen Stiller, Author of “The Minister’s Wife: a memoir of faith, doubt, friendship, loneliness, forgiveness and more,” and former senior editor of Faith Today
“My sessions with Darlene provide me with a deep sense of peace and a reminder of God’s love and grace in my life. I feel safe to share my insecurities, questions and uncertainties about faith, and in response Darlene provides me with nonjudgmental responses and thoughtful guidance. I am very grateful for all of her support.”
Melissa H., wife, mother, and student (MA in Counselling Psychology, Yorkville University)
“Darlene blessed me as a gracious companion during a difficult season. Her commitment to deep listening, her asking of perceptive questions, and her gentle presence equip her well to walk with those seeking fresh perspective. I found her easy to trust and a pleasure to meet with.”
Jason B., pastor, Regina, SK
