Henri Nouwen found a remarkable spiritual guide in a greatly disabled son known as Adam.
Excerpts from Adam: God's Favorite:
"Inside our society suffering from fear, panic, loneliness, melancholy and a feeling to be lost, we keep looking for courses. We a great deal wish that someone—a master, spiritual director or spirit friend—can help us seem sensible out of our own confusion and can show us ways to inner wholeness, freedom and serenity."
"I acknowledged that Adam's way, the way of radical vulnerability, was also the way of Jesus."
"Adam obviously challenged us [the L'Arche Daybreak community] to trust that compassion, not competition, is the way to fulfill our real human vocation. This problem forced us to reexamine all the basic assumptions of our own specific and action-oriented lives."
"I am a see to Adam's real truth. I know that I couldn't have informed Adam's story easily hadn't first known Jesus' tale. Jesus' story gave me eye to see and ears to listen to the story of Adam's life and fatality."
