Suggested Book for Clergy Self-Care

In the midst of discerning who God is calling you to be?  Check out Let Your Life Speak, by Parker Palmer:

This book gives permission to reflect on your life and to learn from your own life experience, and to take seriously your own inner urgings.
 Jim Hanna

Most of us arrive at a sense of self and vocation only after a long journey through alien lands. But this journey bears no resemblance to the trouble-free 'travel packages' sold by the tourism industry. It is more akin to the ancient tradition of pilgrimage--'a transformative journey to a sacred center' full of hardships, darkness, and peril.
Parker Palmer, Let Your Life Speak
