January 20th, 2008


Christina Baldwin's life work addresses the deep need in modern culture to re-establish authentic and heartfelt dialogues. After graduating from Macalester College with an honors degree in English and from Columbia Pacific University with a master's degree in Educational Psychology, she began her public career in the field of journal writing. Her classic books, One to One, Self-Understanding through Journal Writing, and Life's Companion Journal Writing as a Spiritual Quest, have helped tens of thousands of people articulate the dialogue they are having with themselves.

Her long study of personal growth and group dynamics led to her groundbreaking book, Calling the Circle, the First and Future Culture. Her original contribution, PeerSpirit methodology, is based on ways that council can help people have significant conversations with each other. Her book, The Seven Whispers, A Spiritual Practice for Times Like These, invited people into a dialogue with soul. And now, in Storycatcher, Making Sense of our Lives through the Power and Practice of Story, she turns to the theme that weaves through all her work and writing: her utter belief in the power of story to renew how we are in the world on an individual to collective level.
