About this ebook
With a new foreword from friend and author Christopher de Vinck, Heart Speaks to Heart follows Henri Nouwen during a Holy Week retreat during which he desired to write about the Sacred Heart. As his words took shape, he instead spoke directly to the heart of Jesus. The resulting book shares Nouwen's view of his own faithful, but often painful, journey to the Lord. A Prologue and Epilogue shares Nouwen's own account on the creation of this book, which was inspired by a friend's devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
