Bread for the Journey by Henri Nouwen

Reading this book was like visiting an old friend.  This book was published in 1997.  I first heard excerpts from it while visiting a monstery in New York.  I used to own a copy of it but it was misplaced.

It is a daybook that is to be read each day of a year.  Each entry has it's own title and speaks about faith.  While "journeying" through the book some entries held a profound meaning to me and some served as gentle reminders about life in general.  Henri Nouwen died in 1996.  He was a prolific author and many of his books reside on my bookshelves.   He was a senior pastor at a community in Canada where men and women with mental disabilities reside.

This book offers Christians a starting point to begin each day.
