Hannah Hurnard (1905-1990) is a twentieth century Christian author, best known for her allegory Hinds' Feet on High Places. Hurnard was born in 1905 in England to Quaker parents. In 1932 she became an independent missionary, moving to Haifa, Israel. Her work in Israel lasted 50 years, although she would later maintain a home in England as well. Hurnard's early writings (especially Hinds' Feet on High Places) were embraced by the mainstream Christian community, but her later works were seen as a departure from orthodoxy. Her later work Eagles' Wings to the Higher Places has been said to support non-orthodox beliefs in pantheism, universalism, and gnosticism. In her book Unveiled Glory she tells how she came to believe in Universal reconciliation.[1]
