Description

“[We] read Nouwen…to discover new possibilities in our faith.”

—New Review of Books and Religion

A profound and beautiful collection of intimate writings, Henry J.M. Nouwen’s Letters to Marc About Jesus recalls the author’s correspondences with his teenage nephew, a boy struggling with issues of faith and spirituality in an apathetic age. The much-beloved author of The Wounded Healer and With Open Hands—named alongside such notables as C.S. Lewis and Thomas Merton as one of the most important Christian writers of the 20th century—Nouwen writes from the heart in the deeply personal Letters to Marc About Jesus, as he imparts a powerful wisdom born of an unassailable faith.

In these timeless letters, Nouwen explores the core of a vibrant faith:
A Guide to Christian Spirituality: Written as personal correspondence to his nephew Marc, this book tackles the foundational questions of belief in a secular world.Intimate Christian Mentorship: Step into a deeply personal conversation about Jesus, the Church, and how to find meaning and purpose in your own life.Theology for Laypeople: Nouwen unpacks complex ideas like the nature of suffering, the mystery of compassion, and the meaning of the Eucharist with gentle wisdom.A Henri Nouwen Classic: For longtime admirers and new readers alike, a profound work on par with classics by C.S. Lewis and Thomas Merton.
