A Perfect Book on the Imperfection of Nouwen,
By
This review is from: Henri Nouwen: A Spirituality of Imperfection (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book! Will Hernandez has done a great job of probing Nouwen's writings and thoughts, citing key Biblical references and giving insight into Christian Spirituality that has been so profoundly impacted by the deep faith and soul-struggle of Henri Nouwen. This text is a powerful integrative resource for those that are familiar with Nouwen's writings and personal journals. But Will Hernandez' labor of love will also be a inspiring introduction to the novice of the heart and soul of the "wounded healer." I highly recommend this book to anyone that has struggled to find meaning and hope in the imperfection of their own journey of faith.

Great book on spirituality,
By
This review is from: Henri Nouwen: A Spirituality of Imperfection (Paperback)
This book will be an encouragement to those who have embarked on a
spiritual journey and have wrestled with integrating and bringing to life the aspects of our inner, relational and spiritual lives in light of unending longings, wounds and struggles. Through Wil Hernandez's clear analysis and synthesis of Nouwen's spirituality, we can learn from the dynamics of Nouwen's spirituality of imperfection, and continue with renewed hope on our journey to know God.

Illuminating the sources of Nouwen's depth,
This review is from: Henri Nouwen: A Spirituality of Imperfection (Paperback)
Wil Hernandez provides us with a readable multifaceted look into the life
and ministry of Henri Nouwen who has been a spiritual guide par excellence to so many of us. One cannot read a page from Nouwen without sensing his depth. Wil's book illuminates the sources of this depth far beyond what could be gleaned by those of us who have frequently returned to Nouwen as a source of spiritual reading and guidance over many years. As Wil so ably shows us, Nowen's love of God, self and others was Biblically faithful, theologically nuanced and psychologically sound which freed him, broken as he was, to engage others in the healing and transforming ministry of Jesus. I highly recommend adding Henri Nouwen: A Spirituality of Imperfection to your library if you have not yet done so. L. Paul Jensen, Orange, CA
