Produktbeschreibung

Drawing on his vast experience as a pastoral counselor, renowned spiritual writer Henri Nouwen addresses the basic question: "How can I find a creative and fulfilling intimacy in my relationship with God and my fellow human beings?" Nouwen explores the difficulty in finding a balance between intimacy and distance, the problems in trying to develop lasting and productive relationships on all levels, and the connections between intimacy and sexuality, prayer, faith, and mental well-being. Intimacy is an essential resource for anyone struggling to better understand this most basic of human needs.

Henri J. M. Nouwen (1932-1996) was the author of With Open Hands, Reaching Out, The Wounded Healer, Making All Things New, and many other bestsellers. He was the senior pastor of L'Arche Daybreak in Toronto, Canada, a community where men and women with mental disabilities and their assistants create a home for one another.

"On the long road it's good to have Nouwen and his divining rod. Deftly he bends toward the drop of spiritual wisdom caked in the most ordinary things."

- Sister Helen Prejean, C.S.J., author of Dead Man Walking
