Journey to the Wild Heart: Four Invitations to Contemplative Living

Offering four invitations to the spiritual journey--reflect, behold, bewilder, and

discern--this book helps us access resources when we meet difficult situations or feel stuck in old habits of being and thinking that fail to lead us deeper into the presence of God and an understanding of ourselves. The spiritual exercises in this book form a series of contemplative practices guiding readers to break these habits and find renewal for the inner journey.

A guide for set-apart times, retreat, or pilgrimage, The Four Invitations offer a lens for meeting a new interior or exterior landscapes with questions and invitations meant to help readers open up into new understandings in/for the spiritual life.

Written by the author of Julian of Norwich: A Spiritual Biography and Wild Woman: A Footnote, the Desert, and My Quest for an Elusive Saint, Amy Frykholm is beloved for combining the scholar's acuity with a mystical heart, creating books that are their own spiritual journeys and interior explorations.
