This October, the Henri Nouwen Society Spiritual Reading Group will gather to reflect on one of Henri’s most beloved and transformative works: The Return of the Prodigal Son. Inspired by Rembrandt’s painting of the same name, Henri invites us to enter deeply into the biblical story of forgiveness, reconciliation, and unconditional love.

This November, the Henri Nouwen Society Book Club will turn to Letters to Marc About Jesus, a deeply personal and heartfelt collection of reflections in which Henri shares his insights on following Christ with honesty, courage, and love. Written as letters to his dear friend Marc, these pages offer gentle guidance on encountering Jesus in everyday life and responding to God’s call with openness and trust.
