"Easter brings the good news that although things seem to get worse in the world, the Evil One has already been overcome." #HenriNouwen
"It is the way of suffering, but also the way to healing. It is the way of humiliation, but also the way to resurrection...It is the way of hiddenness, but also the way that leads to the light that will shine for all people." #HenriNouwen #GoodFriday

In short: who can take away suffering without entering it?

"You have to keep unmasking the world about you for what it is: manipulative, controlling, power-hungry, and in the long run, destructive." #HenriNouwen

In time we discover that there is a deep hole in our being, an abyss, that can never be filled.
We #learn to work around it.

It’s the first time theology truly echoes within my research — Nouwen’s among them.
Some books don’t open until you’re ready to be read by them.
As Nouwen wrote:
“Discernment doesn’t change the world;
it changes the way we see it —
and that changes everything.”

Es la primera vez que, dentro de mi investigación, me resuena la teología —
la de Nouwen, la de la liberación…
Y entiendo que hay lecturas para las que aún no estás preparada.
Como dice Nouwen:
“Discernir no cambia el mundo,
cambia la manera en que lo vemos,
y eso lo cambia todo.”

Here at the Cloister, we celebrate Henri Nouwen. His writings resonate with LGBTQ+ Christians believers who find hope in his journey as a private gay man. His struggles with loneliness, belonging, and divine love comfort to those who feel marginalized.

I, more and more in my life, have discovered that the gifts of life are often hidden in the places that hurt most.

You can tell your story from the place where it no longer dominates you. You can speak about it with a certain distance and see it as the way to your present freedom."
- #HenriNouwen, 'The Inner Voice of Love'
#HENRINOUWEN ON TELLING OUR STORY DIFFERENTLY
"There are two ways of telling your story. One is to tell it compulsively and urgently, keep returning to it because you see your present suffering as the result of your past experiences. But there is another way.
"Prayer is living in the heart of God -- a heart of justice, peace, and righteousness." #HenriNouwen #PrayForAmerica
