Out of Solitude
Three Meditations on the Christian Life
Three beautifully written, scripture-based meditations show how
it was in solitude that Jesus found the courage to follow God's
will, not his own- the core the the Christian life, a message of
profound importance. Out of Solitude; the necessity of prayer
away from the crowd. With Care; in solitude our caring grows
strong and mature. In Expectation; the expectation of Christ's
coming affects our solitude and care.

Making All Things New
An Invitation to the Spiritual Life
"In this quietly written call to follow the way
of Christian spirituality, Nouwen emphasizes the necessity for a
personal program of contemplative solitude and for the
individual's involvement in a community of like-seeking
Christians."—Booklist
"I think Nouwen has written a marvelous little book on
helping people to walk quietly into the presence of God and
begin to hear with a more sensitive part of their ears. I will
recommend this book to anyone who wants to have a closer and
more personal relationship with God."—J. Keith Miller
