Books by Margaret Guenther

Out of her long experience as a spiritual director, mentor, and teacher, the author offers a guide for "the rest of us" - singles, couples, parents, extended families, members of churches - to create a rule of life to help us in our search for faith.

Margaret Guenther retells the "walking stories" of Scripture and unpacks the truths they reveal about spiritual life.

Looks back over writer's life and tackles themes of childhood, friendship, moving, the magic of words, heaven, spirituality in cyberspace, asking the right questions, and things never to do again.

In each chapter, Toward Holy Ground explores the practical aspects of spirituality in midlife: intercessory prayer, a sense of community, a rule of life, lightheartedness, detachment, and stripping down, preparing for "a good death."

In these reflections on Psalm 62 Margaret Guenther provides the foundation for a time of reflection and retreat without ever leaving home.

In this down-to-earth book on the essentials of prayer, Margaret Guenther answers many of the common questions of the spiritual life.

Margaret Guenther shares with the reader a loving and evocative meditation on the experience of spiritual direction from the perspective of a wise and hospitable spiritual director, who is also a woman, wife, mother, teacher, and priest.

Margaret Guenther uses the images of the spiritual director as host, teacher, and midwife to describe the ministry of spiritual direction today.
