Rupp describes herself as a “spiritual midwife.” She is the author of numerous best-selling books.

I saw the river over which every soul must pass
to reach the kingdom of heaven,
and the name of that river was suffering…
and I saw the boat which carries souls across the river,
and the name of that boat was love. ~ John of the Cross
