Spiritual Direction and the Care of Souls
In recent years, many Christian clergy, laity and mental health professionals have rediscovered the ancient practices of spiritual direction. Seen as a refreshing alternative to the techniques and limitations of modern psychology, such practices offer new insights for pastoral care. But many remain unclear on what spiritual direction is and whether its methods are applicable to their own clients and parishioners. Spiritual direction is a practice of Christian soul care that is found most notably in the Catholic, Orthodox and Episcopal traditions but is also present in Wesleyan/Holiness, Pentecostal/charismatic, social justice and Reformed communities.

The Privilege of Love
The Privilege of Love: Camaldolese Benedictine Spirituality is a collection of essays by Camaldolese monks, nuns, and oblates. After an introduction by Michael Downey and an overview chapter on Camaldolese Benedictine history and spirituality, three chapters center on the Benedictine aspects of spirituality, such as liturgy, lectio divina, and Word/Wisdom of God. The book focuses on Camaldolese sources, eremitical/cenobitical dialectic, and solitude, followed by chapters on Camaldolese ecumenical and interreligious involvement, as well as oblate spirituality. The concluding chapter comments on Camaldolese Benedictine spirituality in a post-Vatican II context.
Hope Begins where Hope Begins
In this book on hope, popular retreat leader and presenter Michael Downey shows how ordinary Christians can find hope in today's world of changing values, a world that seems at times to be in a shambles. The questions Downey asks are ones we've all asked ourselves at one time or another, as we struggle with the challenges of life, the needs of family, friends and colleagues, as well as of jobs and school and home. Given so many challenges, how can Christians live fully in Jesus Christ? Why does hope seem so hard to come by? Just what is hope? What makes hope possible? What does it mean to say that our hope is in Christ? As Downey seeks to answer these questions, he tells us personal stories of loss: a stolen car, a beloved grandmother dying in a nursing home. He also tells stories of people he has known: Ken the hiker; Kevin, whose wife left him; Ellen, a theology professor without faith; and how, despite loss, despite so many things going wrong, a trace of hope can glimmer in people's hearts all the same. In the millennial year of the Holy Spirit -- of divine inspiration and hope -- Hope Begins Where Hope Begins shows us where and how to begin.
