- Synopsis
- A guide for leading an adult spiritual study group for The Active Life, the inspirational self-help volume from an award-winning writer and teacher.The Active Life is Parker J. Palmer’s deep and graceful exploration of spirituality for the busy, sometimes frenetic lives many of us lead. Telling evocative stories from a variety of religious traditions, including Taoist, Jewish, and Christian, Palmer shows that the spiritual life does not mean abandoning the world but engaging it more deeply through life-giving action. He celebrates both the problems and potentials of the active life, revealing how much they have to teach us about ourselves, the world, and God.
