Deeply inspiring

Henry Nouwen offers deep insight into the Christian spirituality. I especially appreciated his concrete advice on how to live out the different aspects of our calling. This book was very easy to listen to as most of his words are simple and his ideas are relatable. I would definitely recommend this book.

Spoke to my soul

This book was incredible and life changing. This writing brought me new perspectives and hope. Being His Beloved is part of our purpose. When we enter into that understanding and love in our daily life it ripples into eternity.
