Life of the Beloved by Henri J M Nouwen
All I want to say to you is, 'You are the Beloved, ' and all I hope is that you can hear these words as spoken to you with all the tenderness and force that love can hold. My only desire is to make these words reverberate in every corner of your being - 'You are the Beloved.' This personal witness to a God who calls us the Beloved is the fruit of a long friendship between journalist-writer Fred Bratman and Henri Nouwen. Henri is trying to respond to Fred's concern to live a spiritual life in the midst of a very secular world. A remarkable aspect of this book is that while Henri writes to a personal friend, he in fact found a language that speaks clearly and convincingly to all who search for the Spirit of God in the world. Here is a ringing affirmation that everyone is loved by God and can enjoy the life of the beloved. It reveals the wonders of the spiritual journey and renews the fire of faith.HENRI NOUWEN was a Dutch-born Catholic priest, lecturer, and pastor who wrote over 30 works on spirituality, including classics like The Wounded Healer, The Inner Voice of Love, and The Return of the Prodigal Son. Nouwen's writings have been translated into over 30 languages and have sold over seven million copies throughout the world, resonating with individuals from all walks of life, religious, spiritual, cultural, and political. Since his death in 1996, his literary legacy has guided an expanding number of readers, writers, instructors, and searchers.
