"I know introverts who give priority to solitude. I know others who find strength in community. And I know busy colleagues in ministry who find time for neither solitude or community. In his life, and now in his words, Henri Nouwen brings all three together solitude, community, ministry in a triad of spiritual health." Philip Yancey, author of many books, including "What Good Is God?" and "What's So Amazing About Grace?" "I knew Henri personally, and like few friends, he knew how to say 'pious' things in a profound way, seemingly impersonal things in a personal way, and offer serious challenges in a way that made you say, 'Thank you!' He does it again in this fine book." Richard Rohr, OFM, Center for Action and Contemplation, Albuquerque, New Mexico

Nouwen was an internationally renowned priest and author, respected professor, and beloved pastor who wrote over 40 books on the spiritual life. Nouwen enjoyed an impressive academic career with positions at Notre Dame, Yale, and Harvard Universities. His commitment to explore the relationship between faith and justice led him to become involved in the civil rights movement and to make a number of trips to Central America. Nouwen lived the last ten years of his life as the pastor of L'Arche Daybreak in Toronto, one of the many communities founded by Jean Vanier. In L'Arche people with and without intellectual disabilities live and work together as peers, create inclusive communities of faith and friendship, and transform society through relationships that cross social boundaries. This became Nouwen's home until his death in September 1996.
