Description

Henri Nouwen, a renowned author, priest, and counsellor, understood the spiritual life as a journey of faith and transformation. He believed that accountability, community, and relationships deepened this journey. In this book, two of his longtime students, Michael Christensen and Rebecca Laird, have compiled his unpublished writings on spiritual direction, creating a comprehensive guide to his thoughts on the Christian life. Nouwen's approach to spiritual direction is rooted in meditation and surrender, rather than method. He invites readers to shatter the barriers between God and themselves, embracing a sense of prodigal return. This book offers a structured and disciplined approach to spiritual direction, enriched by rich storytelling and moments of sharp insight. A brilliant addition to Nouwen's canon of work, this book will appeal to both long-time fans and newcomers to his wisdom. It provides a unique opportunity to engage with his thoughts and principles, and to deepen one's understanding of the Christian life.
