NOTES
Read by Henri J. M. Nouwen
This audiobook will nourish your spirit and revitalize your faith. We lead our spiritual lives in relationship with others. A faithful community gives us opportunities for worship, sharing burdens, confessing faults, offering forgiveness, and celebrating life. Wherever he went, Henri Nouwen created such communities, and within them, he offered spiritual direction. Available as an audiobook for the first time ever, Spiritual Direction: Wisdom for the Long Walk of Faith is part of "The Nouwen Trilogy." These convenient audio sessions let you adopt Nouwen as your personal spiritual director. In this audiobook, you will come to see the spiritual life as he did: a transformative journey that takes on meaning through interpersonal connections. Ordained as a Catholic priest and trained as a psychologist, Nouwen famously struggled with loneliness and finally found refuge ministering to the intellectually disabled at L'Arche Daybreak community. His deep humanity and compassion for the least among us is evident in the stories, readings, and questions collected in these sessions. Each session was carefully prepared by an award-winning professor of Christian ministry and a student of Nouwen's at Yale Divinity School. Drawing from research and personal recollection, they structured these sessions to let you take Nouwen as your personal spiritual guide anytime and anywhere. In the spirit of community, you are encouraged to listen to these sessions in group settings. With Nouwen's guidance, you hold the key to true and lasting spiritual transformation
