A Hidden Wholeness

The Journey Toward an Undivided Life

De: Parker J. Palmer

Narrado por: Stefan Rudnicki

A Hidden Wholeness is a thoughtful and heartfelt examination of sources and consequences of the alienation we feel when our inner and outer lives become divorced from each other, when external forces pressure us to depart from our soul's true yearnings.

The book lifts up the problem of the "divided life", diagnoses its sources, assesses its personal and social costs, and offers a model of community that will help people live with greater integrity and wholeness.

As he did for vocation in Let Your Life Speak and for the inner lives of teachers in The Courage to Teach, best-selling author and teacher Parker J. Palmer speaks to the heart of our yearning for integrity, authenticity, and wholeness in a fractured world.

Parker J. Palmer holds a Ph.D. from the University of California - Berkeley. He is a founder and senior partner of the Center for Courage and Renewal, senior associate of the American Association for Higher Education, and senior advisor to the Fetzer Institute. In 1998, he was named one of the 30 most influential senior leaders in higher education.

Another Wonderful Journey

This is the second audio book from Parker J. Palmer for me. My life is richer for having spent the quiet hours listening.

Important book for folks interested in sacred activism

This is a poetically written book. Palmer offers simple, but ground breaking ideas for personal change that radiate out to community wide change and beyond. Sample topics are how to illicit the inner teacher, how to invite the soul forward and what is an open and honest question that aids in these processes.
