“One of the most satisfying aspects of writing is that it can open in us deep wells of hidden treasures that are beautiful for us as well as for others to see.” (Heny Nouwen,Bread for the Journey, April 28)
Nouwen talked about writing as source of great pain and anxiety but “…every time I overcome these fears and trust not only my own unique way of being in the world, but also my ability to give words to it, I experience a deep spiritual satisfaction. . . . What I am gradually discovering is that in the writing I come in touch with the Spirit of God within me and experience how I am led to new places.” (“Reflections on Theological Education”)
Die Henry Nouwen Society hat auch einen Blog, auf dem Abschnitte über bestimmte Bücher Nowens diskutiert werden…
