Henri Nouwens, The Wounded Healer

The first title is the one cited. The second speaks to Natalie's post. One memorable concept was Nouwen's discussion of the transformation of suffering into a place of hospitality for others who suffer. Suffering is part of the human condition, Nouwen writes, but it can be either exhibited or gradually exposed, like a wound slowly unbandaged.
