Shane Phelan (Author)
Shane Phelan is an Episcopal priest, a spiritual director, and a founding member of the Companions of Mary the Apostle, an ecumenical monastic community. She has been a university professor, an Episcopal nun, and a Lutheran pastor. Once upon a time, she wrote extensively on LGBTQ politics and feminist theory. Now she writes sermons and the occasional blog post. She's happiest outside and in motion, or sitting still and listening for God. Or listening in motion. Or sitting outside. She shares a companionary on the Hudson River with her Sister E, the various insects that live in the walls, and the birds and foxes and deer outside.Read more about this authorRead less about this author

How many lives can one person live? Shane Phelan has stopped counting. Big Queer Nun is a powerful narrative of trauma, addiction, and recovery, of the search for a God who loves us as we are and invites us into more than we can imagine.

From her childhood in an alcoholic home, through jails and hospitals, universities and convents and churches, coming out and living in closets, this memoir traces the winding path of integration. Refusing to settle for less than abundant life, she has been drawn by hope to a place of healing.

As we read, she inspires us to keep creating our lives. “Shane Phelan’s memoir is a love story.

She seeks. She perceives hints of the Beloved in unlikely places.

She finds, loses, finds again. The reader will not only enjoy a good tale, but recognize in it, the mysterious truth of love.

”—The Rev. Suzanne Guthrie, author, retreat leader, host of The Edge of Enclosure.
