Publisher's summary

2021 Christianity Today Award of Merit (Tie) - Spiritual Formation

In the midst of our hectic, overscheduled lives, caring for the soul is imperative. Now, more than ever, we need to pause - intentionally - and encounter the Divine.

Soul care director Barbara Peacock illustrates a journey of prayer, spiritual direction, and soul care from an African American perspective. She reflects on how these disciplines are woven into the African American culture and lived out in the rich heritage of its faith community. Using examples of 10 significant men and women - Frederick Douglass, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Darrell Griffin, Renita Weems, Harold Carter, Jessica Ingram, Coretta Scott King, James Washington, and Howard Thurman - Barbara offers us the opportunity to engage in practices of soul care as we learn from these spiritual leaders.

If you've yearned for a more culturally authentic experience of spiritual transformation in your life and community, this book will help you grow in new yet timeless ways. Come to the river to draw deeply for your soul's refreshment.

Soul Care

I’m In a Spiritual Direction training program and this book was recommended to read. I have the book but also listened on audible. It really spoke to my heart. I learned of things that I already do on my spiritual journey and things that convicted me to work on. Thank you for this message from God. Blessings on you and your family.
