The Road to Peace by Henri J M Nouwen
Throughout his life Henri Nouwen stressed the connection between intimacy with Christ and solidarity with a wounded world.This book includes a previously unpublished manuscript on peacemaking as well as stories of Nouwens participation in the March on Selma in 1965 and at the funeral of Martin Luther King, Jr. In other writings Nouwen reflects on the presence of Christ among the oppressed poor of Latin America, the legacies of Oscar Romero and Thomas Merton, and the lessons of the heart which he learned among his handicapped friends at LArche. The final pieces include a moving talk on compassion in the time of AIDS, and the call to solidarity with the human family.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.
