Where do I go from here with my life? How can I find my purpose in life? Can I know God better? Will God help me find my purpose? Where can I look for support? Many of these questions can be answered in “Tending the Soul.”

Tending the Soul is helpful as part of one's spiritual journey with the guidance of a spiritual director. It is designed for those who seek meaningful answers and understanding to their life questions and challenges. Father Luke Dougherty, O.S.B. introduces us to the ancient art of spiritual direction. He was a founding member of the Prince of Peace Abbey in Oceanside, California, and wrote “Tending the Soul” shortly before his death in 2002. He spent much of his life providing spiritual direction and vocational counseling to individuals and groups, as well as leading retreats.

By reflecting on Jesus' invitations to his followers and to us, Father Luke shows us what we might discover about sharing our life’s story, undergoing conversion, identifying our gifts, praying, and developing a friendship with Jesus. The process also includes seeking answers to the meaning of “family,” surrendering our will to God, struggling, finding balance in our lives and envisioning the future.

With the help of a skilled director, these and other questions can be prayerfully examined, revealing answers that will contribute to our spiritual journey.
