Details
Community, written by Henri Nouwen, comes together by drawing on previously unpublished material along with a number of articles that he wrote over the years and is edited by Stephen Lazaras. Community provides the reader with a complete picture of Nouwen’s understanding of Christian community and why he believed it was an essential and integral part of the spiritual life in every dimension. “Community is not a human creation but a divine gift which calls for an obedient response. This response may require much patience and humility, much listening and speaking, much confrontation and self-examination, but it should always be an obedient response to a bond which is given and not made.”—Henri J. M. Nouwen
By editing this compilation of works by Nouwen on this topic, Community is the “book” Nouwen never wrote despite how central community was in his life’s journey. He often spoke about community during his life and as a pastor, priest, professor, and prolific author. The reader’s understanding of coming together as shown in Community will ripen and mature the reader’s willingness to develop the skills necessary to receive this wonderful gift from God.
