James Finley
James Finley left home at the age of 18 for the Abbey of Gethsemani
in Trappist, Kentucky, where Thomas Merton lived as a
contemplative. He later earned degrees from the University of
Akron, Saint John College, and the Fuller Theological Seminary.
Today James Finley is a husband, father, writer, and
psychotherapist in private practice. His books include Merton's
Palace of Nowhere and The Contemplative Heart.
"James Finley leads us to discover that the contemplative path is indeed available to us all...His poetic style is itself an immersion into contemplative practice."
