by Henri J. M. Nouwen

Discernment: Reading the Signs of Daily Life features the wisdom that spiritual leader and counselor Henri J. M. Nouwen brought to the essential question asked by every Christian and seeker: What should I do with my life?

Nouwen emphasizes listening to the Word of Godin our hearts, in the Bible, in the community of faith, and in the voice of the poor as a way to discern Gods plan.

Although the late Henri J. M. Nouwen counseled many people during his lifetime, his principles of discernment were never collected into a single volume. Now, in association with the Nouwen Legacy Trust, Michael Christensenone of Nouwens longtime studentsand Rebecca Laird have taken his coursework, journals, and unpublished writings to create this and other books in the series exploring Gods will for your life.
