Inspiring, Nov 19, 2009
By xenodad, Milwaukee WI

"Nouwen delves deep into the parable of the Prodigal Son, and into the painting by Rembrandt showing his return. Nouwen also reflects on how both have influenced his life, and how the painting and his meditations on it opened new inspirations for him.

My only complaint is the quality of the reproduction of Rembrandt's painting on the cover. It is too dark, and one of the figures is completely lost in the upper left corner in the dark. Nouwen refers to her in the book, and I had to find an online copy of the painting to see what he was talking about. But this complaint is minor--the book is absolutely inspiring in many ways."

"very well thought out treatise on God's parallel roles represented each of the three characters of the parable, the young son, the older son and the father.
i'd never heard any analysis / sermon on the father in the story.
quick read and quite interesting."

"This book pulls some very powerful universal lessons out of the parable of the prodigal son via the painting by Rembrandt of the same name. I loved how the author married art and religious thought. It was interesting. I liked the author's rambling train of thought as he discovered new aspects to the parable. I liked the progression to greater and greater truth. I didn't mind reading his Catholic "voice". Any Christian will benefit from this book. It is written without the cultural language of any one denomination. The ideas are golden."

By Kathy, Lincoln, NE

"This is a wonderful book by a struggling wounded priest. It details our struggle to come home to the Father whether we are a wandering younger son or a bitter elder brother. It also includes guidance to become the father, a person who loves joyously no matter what. There is lots to think about and practice in this simple book."
