  • Henri Nouwen

    When I was forced to do so, I used to label myself as an evangelical pastor. That term has strayed from its original meaning of holding to Scripture as one’s final authority. So, now I just call myself a Jesus follower. I find each of the Nouwen podcasts enlightening and encouraging. Throughout my life, I have found Henri’s writings to be spot-on. These podcasts make that much easier. Thank you for all the work to bring these people into my world! Don

  • Nourishment by Noewen & friends

    I have read and enjoyed the wisdom of Henri Noewen, and I thought I would try out the podcast for a glimpse of his wisdom in the podcast era. What I found is a treasure of spiritual wisdom from Henry’s treasured talks to modern interviews with the wonderful SrJoan Chittester and Kerry A. Robinson and others, who bring perspective and texture to modern spiritual practice. Well moderated and curated by Karen Pascal.
