Summary

Here is the modern classic that interweaves the solitude, silence, and prayer of the fourth- and fifth-century Egyptian Desert Fathers and Mothers with our contemporary search for an authentic spirituality.

Previously recorded by Henri Nouwen as Desert Spirituality and Contemporary Ministry.

Deep stuff

As a card-carrying charismatic, this definitely gives a lot of food for thought and some of it is hard to swallow. Really appreciate Nouwen's gentleness in delivering truth but also his openness in the application of it, swerving the temptation to be prescriptive.
A great read.

Be prepared to be challenged!

This book will challenge all you ever thought you knew about Solitude, Silence and Prayer. It is a book that needs to be revisited over and over again. Read this book if you are seeking a deep, meaningful relationship with God, and your fellow man.
