Book Description
"Deep calleth unto deep at the [noise] of thy waterfalls" (Psalm 42:7a). What can be deeper than the heart? Solomon, the wisest of men, advised us, saying: "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life" (Proverbs 4:23). When a heart has heard the voice of God, it calls other hearts to hear and to respond. This is exactly what brother Watchman Nee tried to share with us from his heart. During his years of ministry he realized that only words coming from a heart that God had spoken to could reach the heart of others. Not that knowledge is unnecessary, but it must come from revelation or enlightenment from above: for only such knowledge is living and operative which can reach the depth of man's heart. Brother Nee wrote and spoke to many hearts to the glory of God.

Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Henri Nouwen’s never-before-published story of his surprising friendship with a traveling trapeze troupe. During the last five years of his life, best-selling spiritual author Henri J. M. Nouwen became close to The Flying Rodleighs, a trapeze troupe in a traveling circus. Like Nouwen’s own life, a trapeze act is full of artistry, exhilarating successes, crushing failures and continual forgiveness. He wrote about his experience in a genre new to him: creative non-fiction. In Flying, Falling, Catching, Nouwen's colleague and friend Carolyn Whitney-Brown presents his unpublished trapeze writings framed by the true story of his rescue through a hotel window by paramedics during his first heart attack. Readers will meet Nouwen as a spiritual risk taker who was transformed through his engagement with these trapeze artists, as well as his participation in the Civil Rights movement, his life in community with people with intellectual disabilities, his personal growth through friendships during the 1990s AIDS pandemic, and other unexpected encounters. What will we do with our lives, and with whom will we do it? In this story of flying and catching, Nouwen invites us all to let go and fly, even when we are afraid of falling.
