Henri Nouwen, beloved author, priest and world-renowned counsellor
and guide, understood the spiritual life as a journey of faith and
transformation that is deepened by accountability, community and
relationships. Although Henri counselled many people during his
lifetime, his principles of discernment were never collected into a
single volume. Now, in association with the Nouwen Legacy Trust,
Michael Christensen - one of Nouwen's long-time students - and
Rebecca Laird have taken his coursework, journals and unpublished
writings and created the definitive resource on spiritual
discernment. Discernment is the final volume in a trilogy of Nouwen
titles. Spiritual Direction and Spiritual Formation are also
published by SPCK. 'For most people, the very word discernment
implies something heady, private and maybe even elitist. Henri
Nouwen, as always, makes seemingly complex things personal,
practical, intelligent and very readable - all at the same time!
This is a rich and helpful book.' Richard Rohr, author of Falling
Upward 'An absolute gift to mind and soul.' Phyllis Tickle, author
of Emergence Christianity 'Nouwen artfully explores how nature, our
neighbours and our own hearts reveal God's active presence all
around us. Life-giving and beautiful, yet practical and wise, he
invites all those who doubt, feel lost, wounded or broken to
discover the beating heart of love at the centre of the world.'
Diana Butler Bass, author of Christianity After Religion
