Finding Wholeness in a Divided World
Co-edited by story-catchers, Dr. Sally Z. Hare and Dr. Karen Luke Jackson, this book is filled with inspirational accounts of work that educators have introduced in colleges and universities, seminaries, health care programs, and diverse community settings. The Circle of Trust approach used is grounded in principles and practices growing from the teachings and writings of Parker J. Palmer, who contributed insights to the three sections: “Becoming Myself,” “Being in Community,” and “Wholeness as a Way of Being.” The authors share stories of transformation, reconciliation in school settings and the workplace, and how they found the courage to change their own lives. The contributors, facilitators and friends of the Center for Renewal and Wholeness in Higher Education, tell their stories in the hope that you will find your story reflected these pages.
