"Now and Then, Now" by Margot Hover
Now and Then, Now is the second collection of stories from Margot Hover, whose earlier books on spirituality and health, family systems, and research in spiritual care established her reputation in the field of pastoral care. In these stories, her curiosity, humor and deep faith are shaped by her close observations and sensitive awareness of herself and the world around her.

She was foster parent for troubled teens before adopting two Cambodian refugee children, and is now proud grandmother of five. She currently ministers as a Spiritual Director. She lives at Pilgrim Place, a retirement community working for peace, justice, and care of the environment.
