Overview

365 Days with Henri Nouwen: The Wounded Healer and the Way of Compassion A year shaped by vulnerability. A faith deepened through compassion. A daily return to the truth that weakness can become a place of grace. Henri Nouwen was never a guide for those seeking spiritual certainty or emotional control. He wrote for the restless, the fragile, the inwardly divided-for those who sense that their wounds are not obstacles to love, but part of the path toward it. His life and work trace a slow movement from ambition to presence, from loneliness to communion, from strength to shared humanity. This daily devotional follows that movement with fidelity and restraint. Each meditation is rooted in the central themes of Nouwen's spiritual vision: woundedness as a source of compassion, solitude as a place of truth, community as a school of patience, and belovedness as the deepest identity beneath all performance. The reflections remain close to lived experience, resisting abstraction and avoiding easy reassurance. Rather than offering quick comfort, this book accompanies the reader across an entire year with steadiness and care. It is written for those who carry quiet fatigue, who serve others while learning to accept their own limits, and who long for a spirituality that allows them to remain human in the presence of God. In this book you will find: Daily meditations grounded in Henri Nouwen's theology of woundedness and compassion Reflections shaped by solitude, prayer, and life in community A spirituality that embraces vulnerability without romanticizing suffering A year-long companion for readers seeking honesty, mercy, and inner integration This book is especially suited for caregivers, ministers, spiritual seekers, and readers drawn to Christian spirituality that is psychologically aware, pastorally realistic, and deeply humane.
