About this episode

In this episode, John Spencer discusses Henri Nouwen's book on the spiritual life, sharing insights and quotes from the text.

June 9th I recently re-read again one of my favorite books, Henri Nouwen’s Reaching Out: The Three Movements of the Spiritual Life . I’m going to use it for today's podcast. I'll share the movements, a couple really great quotes, and few thoughts. Get the book, it’s worth a read. ⁠Email me your questions, comments, and suggestions. I'd love to hear from you!
