  • Throughout the forty-some books that Henri Nouwen wrote and the hundreds of talks that he gave, the subject of Prayer runs through them all and unites them. For him a life of faith is a life of prayer. Drawn from many decades of his life, the compilation of Henri's thoughts, feelings, and the struggle with prayer, reveal the core of the man and his belief that prayer is the only necessary thing.

    Profound yet understandable
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    This is a book I will savor as I read. I will abide one of its cautions, that is to not speak of what I learn until that learning is truly mine, thereby not lose the learning.

    The Only Necessary Thing, Living a Prayerful Life
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    Henry Nouwen is one of the most profound writers of a spiritual life and each time I read one of his books it makes me want to read another. There are none that would be a disappointment to any reader who is on a spiritual journey. I recommend any book that he has written.

    The One Needful Thing...
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    Be attentive to God

    All I will add to the list of glowing reviews is to say that I typically don't enjoy books that are a compilation of selected writings from other books. So if you're like me in that regard, I will say that it shouldn't discourage you from reading this book. The passages selected are excellent and flow together nicely. The Only Necessary Thing reads like it was written all at once and has become one of my favorite Henri Nouwen books. The book is full of foundational life-changing-truths that will speak to you whether you are just beginning to pray or if you have been living a prayerful life for many years. May you blessed in your journey into Christ!

    Spiritual insight
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    One of the most life changing and thought provoking books I've read to draw me closer to God.

    Insightful
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    Nouwen dares to ask the hard questions! His candid honesty is refreshing and speaks to the heart!
