OverviewIn Befriending the Stranger, Jean Vanier reflects on who we are and how we build our communities, and in particular asks, can we be truly compassionate towards others if we are not compassionate towards ourselves? In a series of six meditative pieces, he opens up God's invitation to us today, in the midst of all the violence and corruption of the world, to create new places of belonging and sharing, of peace and kindness, where each one is loved and accepted with one's own fragility, abilities, and disabilities. † Full Product DetailsAuthor: Jean VanierPublisher: Editions Novalis Imprint: Editions Novalis ISBN: 9782895076339ISBN 10: 2895076332 Pages: 180 Publication Date: 10 June 2005 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
