Editorial Reviews
Seeing a reproduction of Rembrandt's The Return of the Prodigal Son catapulted Henri Nouwen on a long spiritual adventure. Here he shares the deeply personal meditation that led him to discover the place within where God has chosen to dwell.

Henri Nouwen, are you reading my mind?

Absolutely incredible. I struggle to find the words to describe my experience reading this book. It was as if Henri had broken into my most private thoughts...but thought them better than I had. Eloquent, hopeful, evocative, inspiring, and honest, this is one of the best Christian books I've ever read. For prodigal sons, older brother...and schizophrenics like me :)

This book is wonderful for people who feels the need for forgivness of God. If you are walking around with guilty feelings about doing something wrong this book will help you understand the unconditional love and forgiveness (no matter how grave the error)God has you. For me, it made me look at God in a whole differant picture.

Great Study Guide

This is a great tool to cover many aspects of our relationship with the Father and others, it is a tool. The author hits many of the key relationship factors of everyone at the party. This will be my second time teaching this lesson to our group - I can hardly wait!

I first read this book when given to me by our pediatrician. I was deeply touched by the way in which Nouwen guides us to a deepr look into the painting and ourselves. As the leader for the Sunday Adult Book Study I chose this book to start off our fall classes. It is a delight to share this book with the members of our study group, and to see the light shining within them as the true meaning of the parable sinks in. This is a book that you will want to purchase for yourself, not borrow from a friend or library, as you will want to return to it many times throughout your life as you move through the stages of prodigal, elder son and father yourself.
