an atheist who likes this book.

worth reading if as a non-believer you want to get a glimpse if the value of religion. i am walking the camino santiago and am discovering the value of silence.

Enlightening and Challenging

I really appreciate this book, the use of simplicity has really open my eyes to a deeper revelation for the need of prayer.

Inclusion requires heart!

Nouwen gathers it together: simplicity of the mind, oneness in the spirit, and inclusiveness of the heart.

Silence, Solitude, and Prayer

This is a great reminder to be with God, not just for God! This is a great short listen or read for anyone who feels overwhelmed in ministry.

Short but profound

Essential wisdom for all time is contained within this book. Let us listen to it and learn, by God’s grace, to truly pray. For that is to connect our messy with the love that is at the center of the everything. Thanks for the gift of this little volume, Henri Nouwen. You are missed.
