Synopsis

From the best-selling author of The Return of the Prodigal Son, essential listening for Catholics and all spiritual seekers
 
“Henri Nouwen’s great gift is his modesty, never more touching than in With Burning Hearts.” - America Magazine

From mourning to discernment, from invitation to intimacy, and from community to the charge to go forth and witness, this work seeks a fuller understanding of the Eucharist through the story of the disciples on their way to Emmaus and calls us to experience the entire journey, to know that what we celebrate and what we are called to live are one and the same.

Available as an audiobook for the first time ever, With Burning Hearts invites you to rediscover the Eucharist in your own heart.

This course is part of the Learn25 Collection, which includes several original titles by Henri Nouwen.

Goodreads review by Jessica on July 13, 2016

I was surprised by how much I loved this book. My previous experiences with Nouwen were good but not amazing, and I expected a book about the Eucharist to be somewhat dry and theoretical. This, however, was straightforward, honest, relatable, and invigorating. Nouwen uses the story of the travelers......more

Goodreads review by Steven R. on January 05, 2023

Recently I heard a priest from Opus Dei state that Henri Nouwen’s books are not spiritual writing, that all of Nouwen’s books are about Nouwen. After finishing this volume I would have to disagree lately, but not completely, this book like many of Nouwen’s draws from Henri’s personal experience, but......more

Goodreads review by Pjnugent on April 08, 2018

This is a deeply moving meditation on the Eucharist, reflecting from the Bible story of the Road to Emmaus, by a spiritual master. I read it on my Nook and was so moved that I bought several paper copies to give to friends. A small book, that will enhance the experience of anyone who believes in the......more
