Enjoyed this and now I know something about the theologian/author whose name I have heard mentioned often. Have not read any of his works. Suggestions?
I think, especially for one trained in the healing profession, The Wounded Healer would be a good place to start. There may be a copy in the parish library. If not, it's still in print and also easy to find through used book dealers. I think there is also a Kindle edition.
Another great read--thank you! I found this particularly interesting, "it was in the United States where one could find the most creative study of God, spirituality, and scriptural interpretation." I had never heard of Nouwen before, so this was an enjoyable documenation of his life, journey, and influence. And, as you may have guessed, I love the concept of studying theology & psychology together.

I thought you might enjoy it. A number of our other readers seem to enjoy an interdisciplinary approach to spirituality.
