Henri Nouwen Society
We publish to deepen and expand Henri’s impact, preserve to protect and promote Henri’s legacy. And most importantly, we provide resources like books, videos, podcasts, workshops, events and free Daily Meditations for those looking to feed their spirit and grow in their faith.
During each Advent Season a group of people “gather together” from around the world on our Book Discussion Blog page.
Please plan to join us this Advent as we read and discuss Henri Nouwen’s latest book Following Jesus – Finding Our Way Home in an Age of Anxiety.
In this never-before-published work of inspiration, Nouwen offers a compelling case for why Christianity is still relevant, beautiful, intelligent, and necessary in the modern world. He offers warm, insightful, practical habits to help readers navigate the narrow, sometimes arduous, but ultimately fulfilling road of conviction and faith.
In these engaging podcasts, Karen Pascal (Executive Director, Henri Nouwen Society), interviews Christian writers, thinkers and leaders that have all been influenced by Henri Nouwen. They share about Henri’s impact on shaping their own lives, and ways that his ideas continue to resonate and be relevant today.
Don’t miss our latest summer series of podcasts – interviews with Henri Nouwen himself, the keynote speakers from this year’s annual Voices for Peace conference, and Sean Mulrooney’s Lenten talks about loneliness and brokenness.
Don’t miss out on this other new Nouwen treasure – Love, Henri: Letters on the Spiritual Life, a selection of over two hundred letters that Henri sent to friends, colleagues, and even strangers who had written to him seeking spiritual advice. Edited by Gabrielle Earnshaw, with a foreward by Brené Brown, “Love, Henri” was named by Publisher Weekly as one of the top five religious books of 2016! Check out the latest review here.
Be sure to check out You Are the Beloved, a book that empowers readers with daily readings drawn from the best of Nouwen’s previously published books, as well as some previously unpublished pieces. With short entries chosen to inspire and comfort, this devotional draws on this rich body of work in new and compelling ways. It will appeal to readers already familiar with Nouwen’s work as well as to new readers looking for a guide to lead them into a deeper awareness of their identity as a Child of God.
