REACHING OUT Three Movements of the Spiritual Life

With clarity, Murray Bodo narrates the spiritual insights and convictions of Henri Nouwen, renowned Catholic priest and mentor. Nouwen presents a systematic three-step plan for living spiritually to achieve union with God. Step one addresses personal isolation and our longing to feel connected to something greater than ourselves. Step two concentrates on our relationship to others as we move toward hospitality. Step three focuses on the reality of prayer and its importance for personal growth. Nouwen is convinced that it's through our search for personal answers and connectedness that we find hope and confidence to persevere in a search for God. Bodo's skilled narration makes this complex subject understandable when listened to in short intervals. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/ NOV 06]
