Revd Dr Lynn M. McChlery is Minister of Auchterarder Parish Church, Perthshire, Scotland.

“Truly well-observed, this rare study lifts the veil on the subtle workings of vocational discernment in the church. ‘Who would you trust with your spiritual life?’ Paying careful attention to each aspect – ecclesial and personal, evidential and intuitive, professional and spiritual – McChlery develops a finely textured portrait of a uniquely searching process. The application of Ignatian wisdom to this delicate decision-making responsibility brings real depth and authority to her research. Her book will be of real service to all involved in vocational assessment in the church.”
