Intimacy

Newly repackaged: the renowned spiritual writer Henri Nouwen addresses the fundamental question, “How can I find a creative and fulfilling intimacy in my relationship with God and my fellow human beings?”
Writing from his vast experience as a pastoral counselor, Henri Nouwen addresses the basic question, “How can I find a creative and fulfilling intimacy in my relationship with God and my fellow human beings?” He conducts a rich and insightful exploration into the balance between intimacy and distance, the problems in trying to develop lasting and productive relationships on all levels, and the connections between intimacy and sexuality, prayer, faith, and the mental well-being of the minister. Intimacy is an essential resource for anyone struggling to grasp the profound implications of the most basic of human needs.
“We probably have wondered in our many lonesome moments if there is one corner in this competitive, demanding world where it is safe to be relaxed, to expose ourselves to someone else, and to give unconditionally. It might be very small and hidden. But if this corner exists, it calls for a search through the complexities of our human relationships in order to find it.” -from Intimacy
