About this listen

Finding one's calling is not just about finding something we can do - it is about finding what we can't not do. "Let your life speak" is a time-honored Quaker admonition to live one's life as witness to the deepest truths one knows. But as Parker Palmer explains, those words can also mean "listen to your life, and let it tell you what your truth is." Vocation, he writes, comes not from external demands but from listening to the true self, a listening that will always call us into some form of service to others. Though the details of our journey are singular, we draw from it that which is universal. This book is a moving and illuminating guide for anyone who seeks not just a job but a calling and companionship along the way.©2000 John Wiley and Sons, Inc. (P)2009 Blackstone Audio, Inc.

What the critics say

"A quiet but memorable addition to the inspirational field, this book has the quality of a finely worked homily. The writing displays a gentle wisdom and economy of style that leaves the reader curious for more insight into the author's Quaker philosophy." - ( Publishers Weekly)

Well done, inspiring

An enlightening experience. It is practical, heart-opening and powerful perspective for those of us who are addicted to being spiritually ambitious (and don't even know it). Mr Parker did not pull punches on his walk through the shadows of his super ego (spiritual ego) and in so doing, gives us an opportunity to see through the duplicitous mask we have created for ourselves and consequential suffering we bring upon our hearts.

The reading was quite easy on the ears, clear and perfect for the content being read.
