Though he counseled many people during his lifetime, his principles of spiritual formation were never written down. Now, Michael Christensen, one of Nouwen's longtime students, and Rebecca Laird, one of Nouwen's editors, have taken his famous course in spiritual formation and supplemented it with his unpublished writings to create the definitive series on Nouwen's thoughts on the Christian life.</p><p>The first book in the series, <em>Spiritual Direction</em>, introduced readers to Nouwen's core concepts and how to live the ques-tions of the spiritual life. Now <em>Spiritual Formation</em> reveals Nouwen's sage advice on how to live out the five classical stages of spiritual development. Featuring a unique <em>visio divina</em>, a visual meditation, to help guide and focus prayer, this volume reveals Nouwen's profound wisdom on how to move from sorrow to joy, resentment to gratitude, fear to love, and how to live there in the center--the place where God dwells.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"The rich lode of material in this book will appeal to individuals on a spiritual journey as well as to those who want to share their experiences of descending from the mind to the heart where all true wisdom resides."--Spirituality and Practice<br>
