Henri Nouwen not only embraced the reality of spiritual polarities-like true self/false self, solitude/community, suffering/glory-in his own journey but befriended the accompanying tensions emerging from such polarities. This book highlights the tension-filled nature of our journey and shows us, via Nouwen's example, how we too can navigate our way through it in a transformative way. Henri Nouwen is our generation's Kierkegaard. Like Kierkegaard, he helps introduce us to ourselves. Wil Hernandez aids us in the next step; he wonderfully introduces us to Henri Nouwen. You won't be disappointed in this book. - Ron Rolheiser, president, Oblate School of Theology and author of The Holy Longing Henri Nouwen has never been more wisely and warmly presented than he is here. Wil Hernandez has done a superb job of giving us the great man at his best and most accessible. - Phyllis Tickle, compiler of The Divine Hours
