Bøker av Joan Mueller

Early in the thirteenth century, a young woman named Clare was so moved by the teachings of Francis of Assisi that she renounced her possessions, vowing to live a life of radical poverty. This book tells her story, and in so doing helps to reshape our understanding of early Franciscan history.

Mueller remedies the difficulty of discernment with a textured overview of this practical charism of the Spirit: how, when, where, and why to discern, examining models of good discernment from scripture and history with particular attention to Ignatian rules for discerning.
