The Only Necessary Thing by Henri J.M. Nouwen is typical of the forty-some books that Henri Nouwen wrote and the hundreds of talks that he gave.
In The Only Necessary Thing by Henri J.M. Nouwen the subject of Prayer runs through it. In addition, as reflected in The Only Necessary Thing by Henri J.M. Nouwen, for him a life of faith is a life of prayer. Drawn from many decades of his life, the compilation of Henri's thoughts, feelings, and the struggle with prayer, reveal the core of the man and his belief that prayer is the only necessary thing.
