This book is another classic from Nouwen. In it he discusses how true pray is an act of letting go and opening up. In the process we are healed by the one whom we feared might destroy us. He discusses the fear that individuals have against true prayer. What we fear to lose and what we fear to gain. Excellent book on Christian Spirituality. ( )
