What would you say were some of Evelyn Underhill’s contributions to the discipline of spiritual direction?[ ] What about [Evelyn’s] life inspires you?Resources  The Spiritual Formation of Evelyn Underhill, by Robyn Wrigley-Carr  Evelyn Underhill’s Prayer Book, by Robyn Wrigley-Carr

Robyn Wrigley-Carr — Evelyn Underhill's Spiritual Formation 

Author Robyn Wrigley-Carr joins Nathan on this week’s episode to discuss Evelyn Underhill’s Prayer Book.Show Notes Who was Evelyn Underhill? Tell me a little bit about her prayer book prior to your visit to the retreat house. I’m hearing joy. Was it a joyful process for you? She does something bold, taking a prayer from some great Saint and adding her own lines, making her own contribution to it. I found that really special to get to have both people’s prayers together. Could you speculate what Evelyn might want people to do with this book? One of the things I found exciting is that, a number of the people’s prayers that she quotes I knew the names, but there were a bunch of them I don’t. And you give a little description of them at the end, and I thought, “New friends to explore!” Do you keep a prayer book? I’ve been collecting prayers for years, my own and others. And I love the idea of curating your own collection, that they all mean something to you.  Resources  Evelyn Underhill’s Prayer Book, by Robin Wrigley Carr  The Spiritual Formation of Evelyn Underhill, by Robin Wrigley-Carr  Music of Eternity: Meditations for Advent with Evelyn Underhill, by Robyn Wrigley-Carr   The Letters of Evelyn Underhill, edited by Charles Williams  Letters from Baron Friedrich von Hügel to a Niece, by Friedrich von Hügel Pleshy Retreat House
