The Way of the Heart: Connecting with God Through Prayer, Wisdom, and Silence-Fast Shipping

Description

Since its first publication, The Way of the Heart has helped millions of men and women cast off the anger and greed that trouble the world—and find love, compassion, and peace in the heart of God.

Inspired by the ancientteachings of St. Anthony and the Desert Fathers,The Way of the Heart clears beforeus a spiritual path consisting of three stepping-stones: Solitude (learning not tobe alone but to be alone with God); Silence (the discipline by which the inner fireof God is tended and kept alive); and Prayer (standing in the presence of God withthe mind in the heart).

Distinguished theologian Henri Nouwen brilliantly illuminateseach of these disciplines. In reflections that are beautifully clear and practical,as uplifting on the fourth reading as on the first, he helps us separate the wheatfrom the chaff in our spiritual lives–and reconnects us with what truly matters.

Within this one small book lies the most relevant and inspiring challenge that weshall ever face: to surrender the compulsive noise of the world for the way of theheart that leads us to God.
