Summary

What does it mean to live "divided no more"? For renowned educator and author Parker J. Palmer (whose books have sold over 700,000 copies), it means living in harmony with the true self, embedded in community and responsive to the needs of the world. The Undivided Life presents the first-ever audio retrospective on the major themes Palmer has explored over the past forty years. Now, listeners join this visionary thinker to explore: - How we can choose an undivided life in a world riddled with divisions - Why we need real community - "a circle of trust" - to take an inner journey toward wholeness - How we can engage in teaching and learning for transformation - Why we need "to act in every situation in ways that honour the soul. "Once I have seen my dividedness," asks Palmer, "do I continue to live a contradiction - or do I try to bring my inner and outer worlds back into harmony"? With The Undivided Life, listeners sit beside this master teacher for a 5-hour conversation, laced with good stories and warmed with humour, on living and working with integrity at every level of our lives.
