Description

Who was Henri Nouwen? And why do we urgently need to hear his voice today? On the Return of the Prodigal Son, you will learn how a chance encounter with a painting by Rembrandt led this beloved Dutch priest and writer on the last great spiritual adventure of his life. Celebrated as the author of many books on contemporary spiritual life, and a former professor of theology, Nouwen spent his final years ministering to handicapped adults before he died unexpectedly in 1996. In this rare archival session, you will experience Nouwen's unsurpassed teachings on the parable of the prodigal son, and themes at the very heart of our spiritual lives today: grief, compassion, and forgiveness. Enriched with insights from Nouwen's own life as a theologian, a pastor, and a seeker, The Return of the Prodigal Son is above all a map to that inner place inside us all where God has chosen to dwell.
