When I was in college I had a couple of professors introduce me to the writings of Henri Nouwen. After reading In the Name of Jesus once, I went back and have now read it over ten times. Over the past six years Henri Nouwen’s writings have played a huge part in my spiritual development.
So I’ve decided to dedicate a blog category to this insightful writer…who seems to always put into words the struggles, questions, and desires of my heart. My goal is to do a ‘Nouwen post’ every Monday. So we’ll see if I can manage to stick to it!

Amazing! Because Henri Nouwen is a bad ass! I have read several of Nouwen’s books, and I generally love them all.
I really liked “Return of the Prodigal”. I took a silent retreat a couple summers ago by myself up at Bowman Lake, and I only brought my journal and that book. Very good!
