Many of Henri Nouwen's deep spiritual insights arose from experiences of anguish. In the Inner Voice of Love, Nouwen penned spiritual imperatives for himself during the most difficult period of his life. Meant to be a deeply personal journal, friends encouraged him to offer it as a gift of consolation for those who live through the pain of broken relationships and immense loss. In this podcast conversation, Wendy speaks with Diane Marshall, a retired therapist, who was an intimate friend of Henri's. Diane and Henri shared each others' burdens during painful times, and their friendship birthed new hope. ___________ Book Discussed: The Inner Voice of Love https://amzn.to/3fq4CKN (US) https://amzn.to/37kJJOm (Canada) ___________ SUPPORT THIS PODCAST: henrinouwen.org/donate/ * SIGN UP FOR FREE DAILY E-MEDITATIONS: henrinouwen.org/meditation/ * MORE FREE RESOURCES: henrinouwen.org/ * FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/henrinouwensociety/ TWITTER: twitter.com/nouwensociety FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/nouwensociety/ PINTEREST: www.pinterest.ca/henrinouwen/

The last manuscript of Henri J.M. Nouwen, left unfinished at his sudden death in 1996, recounts his transformative friendship with a traveling trapeze troupe, the Flying Rodleighs. Nouwen thought his trapeze story could become his most important book. Author Carolyn Whitney-Brown, Henri's colleague and friend, was invited to take the unpublished material and offer it to readers as the final metaphor to have captivated Henri Nouwen's spiritual imagination. Readers will discover Henri to be a spiritual risk-taker always pursuing deeper communion with God. And somewhere in the flying and catching and even falling, Henri found access to a more embodied and liberating life. Carolyn Whitney-Brown is a Canadian writer, artist, and university teacher who earned a PhD in English literature. She knew Henri Nouwen well when she and her family lived in the L'Arche Daybreak community from 1990 until Nouwen's death in 1996. She lives on Vancouver Island. https://writersunion.ca/member/Carolyn-Whitney-Brown ___________ Book Discussed: Flying, Falling, Catching: An Unlikely Story of Finding Freedom https://amzn.to/3UUPJ9c (US) https://amzn.to/3RuZszU (Canada) ___________ SUPPORT THIS PODCAST: henrinouwen.org/donate/ * SIGN UP FOR FREE DAILY E-MEDITATIONS: henrinouwen.org/meditation/ * MORE FREE RESOURCES: henrinouwen.org/ * FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/henrinouwensociety/ TWITTER: twitter.com/nouwensociety FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/nouwensociety/ PINTEREST: www.pinterest.ca/henrinouwen/

Henri Nouwen gave a series of lectures on the importance of following Jesus in an age of anxiety which became the basis for this book. Following Jesus explores calling and purpose, fear and hope, and why, when the twenty-first-century seeker has so many choices, including atheism and secularism, the greatest reward for those looking for fulfillment is to choose to embrace the truth of God’s love. Henri Nouwen offers warm, insightful, and practical spiritual habits to help readers navigate the oft-less- travelled, but ultimately life-giving road of faith in and through following Jesus. Our Guest: Robert A. Jonas, Ed.D. (Harvard University), M.T.S. (Weston Jesuit School of Theology) was a dear friend of Henri Nouwen and is the author of The Essential Henri Nouwen, (Shambhala Publications) and Henri Nouwen (Orbis). His most recent book is, My Dear Far-Nearness: The Holy Trinity as Spiritual Practice (2022 Orbis). Trained as a psychotherapist, Dr. Jonas is an author, father and grandfather, video artist, musician, environmental steward, and retreat leader. Dr. Jonas is the director of The Empty Bell, a contemplative sanctuary in Northampton, MA whose website is an extraordinary resource for contemplative Christians and for Buddhist-Christian dialogue. https://www.emptybell.org/ ___________ Book Discussed: Following Jesus: Finding Our Way Home in an Age of Anxiety https://amzn.to/3frmy7R (US) https://amzn.to/3cWRWta (Canada) ___________ SUPPORT THIS PODCAST: henrinouwen.org/donate/ * SIGN UP FOR FREE DAILY E-MEDITATIONS: henrinouwen.org/meditation/ * MORE FREE RESOURCES: henrinouwen.org/ * FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/henrinouwensociety/ TWITTER: twitter.com/nouwensociety FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/nouwensociety/ PINTEREST: www.pinterest.ca/henrinouwen/
