The Road To Daybreak

A Spiritual Journey

A milestone documenting Nouwen's definitive break with his academic career, and detailing both the inner and outer struggle that leads him finally to embrace his call to join the community of L'Arche at Daybreak in Toronto. Referring to the many journeys, people and events that fill the pages of the journal, he sums up: "What binds them together in their wide variety is the spiritual struggle to say 'yes' to Jesus' invitation, 'Come and follow me.' It is a screaming and kicking 'yes' that fills these pages." A must for any serious Nouwen reader.
