I wasn't crazy about this one. I loved the first book on the Prodigal, but this isn't as good in my opinion. There were a lot of repeats.

A few interesting observations, but I would have chosen another book if I had known it was pieced together from notes after the author's death.

I didn't do right by this book.

This is a spiritual guide, one meant for introspection and interaction. It'd be perfect for a weekend religious retreat, and I think reading it would be very rewarding under those circumstances. It is not, however, meant for listening on 2.5x speed while blasting up I-95 at 65 miles per hour. Henri Nouwen is a serious person with serious insights to consider. I look forward to giving this book another go, in print, at a leisurely and contemplative pace.
