Jesus and Mary: Finding Our Sacred Center (St. Anthony Messenger Press, 1993) is a short book of reflections by Henri Nouwen on Jesus and on Mary his mother, as figures through whom readers can find the centre of their own lives in God. It belongs to his later devotional writing and has been reissued under the title Finding Our Sacred Center.
