Reaching Out: An Essential Guide to Living a Life in the Spirit of Jesus Christ

My wife had looked everywhere for this and I found it for her on Amazon. Earned all kinds of kudos so a big thank you. Good purchasing experience.-Well done!!.

Can only recommend. Fans of Nouwen will live it, and if you haven't met him before, try this if you are wanting to deepen your relationship with God.

I am collecting Henri Nouwen's books and was recommended this by a friend. Great to be able to buy it on line. Many thanks

It is a good book.

Wonderful book

Great

An excellent read and a reference text to which I will return again and again in my spiritual development.

I like that the book reveals truths about the difference between loneliness and solitude. And how to work on your own solitude for greater contentment and happiness in life. I needn’t that.

This book has made a profound impact on my life. I've read thousands of books in my eighteen year academic journey, but few have made an impact as this one ("A Tale of Three Kings" by Gene Edwards is the other). Henri Nouwen has a way with words. He frames concepts in an extraordinary way. He sees human suffering with unusual insight and grace. He is a gifted thinker, no doubt, and writes with exceptional clarity. I can't say enough about this little book. Through academia, I've learned to read 30 pages per hour, but here every hour I read 3 pages. It was that profound. If you have experienced trauma, broken relationships, betrayal, loneliness, doubt, shattered faith, or disillusionment with church people, then this book is for you. Nouwen has taught me to see relationships in a different light. And he has given me answers and solutions for resolving trauma in my own life and in the lives of others. It is not a heavy read but is immensely profound. It shows that one does not need to write complex to be intellectually moving. Every Christian needs to read this book in order to understand the nature of relationships and God's plan for fellowship with one another. I highly recommend it.

This book is simply wonderful! I read it during a course about Henri Nouwen, with other books. However, this has been the most useful for me and my daily life. It describes the Spiritual Path offering a simple and concrete vision.

So good! In this book Henri Nouwen articulates thoughts that were just at the cusp of consciousness and makes them fully comprehensible. A book that will transform many lives. I just can't get over how much this man is able to communicate in simple accessible language.

O livro é magnífico. Pena que não tem tradução para o portugues.

j'ai bien reçu le livre : Reaching Out: The Three Movements of the Spiritual Life (Acheté le 25 juin 2012) de Henri J. M. Nouwen Merci.
