Concerning the Inner Life with the House of the Soul

Excellent teaching for clergy and serious students of God.

“If you, with your special facilities and training, do not manage to do this, it is not particularly likely that anyone else will do it." With this, Evelyn Underhill challenges us to invest deeply in our own spiritual lives, for our sake and for the sake of the people to whom we minister.She writes extensively on how prayer shapes ministers, different types of prayer and how this life of prayer overflows into the work of ministry. Though Concerning the Inner Life was written in 1926, Underhill’s insights remain deeply relevant to the complex work of spiritual direction.

A book which I have returned to several times. Great when I'm feeling a bit dry.Timeless teaching for anyone in ministry.
