Life-changing!
The first time I read this book, I was struck by the truth of Nouwen's words - that we are beloved of God, just as we are, unconditionally, no strings attached! It was, probably, the most important epiphany of my life.
Nouwen's writings are always profound, always simply stated, always helpful when seeking more clarity on the spiritual journey. I have his books right up there with my Bibles and the devotional books that are most important in my life.
If you've ever doubted the love of God or if you've ever felt unimportant and unloved, this book will surely change your mind!
