Book List:Basic QuakerismCorporate Discernment
EDITED BY HENRY FRENCH Drawing from his published works, editor Henry French selects 40 passages from Palmer's writings that reflect Palmer's spiritual journey and invites readers to explore their own spirituality under the guidance of this noted author. When the 40-day journey is over, it will no longer be the guide's description of the journey that stirs the reader's longing for God, but rather the reader's experience of the journey that grounds her or his faith and life. The book contains a short introduction to Parker Palmer's life and offers forty chapters, which include readings from his writings, Scripture passages, queries, journal-reflection exercises, and prayer.
