Description

Discernment: Reading the Signs of Daily Life by Henri Nouwen is an absolute gift to mind and soul. Drawing from his own experiences of loneliness and struggle, Nouwen offers guidance and reassurance for those seeking to deepen their faith and discern God's calling. Through his work with the l'Arche Daybreak community, Nouwen learned that spiritual life is a journey of faith and transformation that requires accountability, community, and relationships. In this book, he emphasizes the importance of listening to the Word of God in our hearts, in the Bible, in the community of faith, and in the voice of the poor as a way to discern God's plan. Nouwen makes discernment personal, practical, intelligent, and readable, making it accessible to all. This rich and helpful book explores how nature, our neighbours, and our own hearts reveal God's active presence all around us.
