by Henri Nouwen (Author)
*Adavnce Praise and Reviews*
"Nouwen puts his inexhaustible curiosity and hunger for religious experience gladly at the service of a worldwide audience."-The Boston Globe
In this journal of his travels in Bolivia and Peru, Nouwen ponders the presence of God in the poor, the challenge of a persecuted church, the relation between faith and justice, and his own struggle to discern the path along which God is calling him. This edition includes a preface in which Nouwen reflects on the meaning and challenge of the Latin American church both for himself and for North American Christians. As he writes,
"I fervently hope and pray that those who read this journal will find in these pages new hope, new confidence and new courage to keep faithful to the task God has given them."
