The Spiritual and Educational Vision of Parker J. Palmer

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Elena Soto’s The Spiritual and Educational Vision of Parker J. Palmer offers the first substantive spiritual and intellectual biography of one of the most significant contemporary educational thinkers. Artfully weaving Palmer’s own spiritual journey as a teacher alongside the development of his theories about the spirituality of teaching, Soto—a teacher herself—illustrates how Palmer’s spiritual and educational vision can form and transform the heart of the teacher. It is an inspiring read for any educator.”
