From the sacred scriptures of the world religions through contemporary times, poetry has helped individuals express and work through spiritual struggles. Journey of the Wounded Soul continues this ancient tradition in a contemporary voice. This collection of poems brings voice to spiritual struggles, seeking to create a community through poetic voice. It was written for those for whom spiritual struggles are a transitional period as well as for those for whom spiritual struggles are an intimate part of their daily spirituality. In addition to the poems, the Foreword by Thomas Moore along with the Introduction by Hoffman and Fehl provide a powerful framework for understanding and approaching spiritual struggles. Journey of the Wounded Soul offers comfort to the many who wrestle with their spirituality and those who are struggling through difficult spiritual periods. From the Foreword I'd like every psychology major in the world to read the brilliant introduction that doesn't miss a step in keeping us close to our humanity and offering solid, profound and reliable ideas for navigating the complex ways of the most ordinary life... This is poetry that stands on its own but is especially useful when you are in one of life's dark nights or tunnels. It doesn't cheer you up; instead it takes you deep in thought to the mysteries working themselves out in what you feel to be problems and challenges. Thomas Moore Author, Care of the Soul, Soul Mates, The Soul's Religion, and A Religion of One's Own
