Spiritual Formation: Following the Movements of the Spirit (HarperOne, 2010) is the second of the three posthumous volumes prepared from Henri Nouwen's unpublished writings and teaching by Michael J. Christensen and Rebecca J. Laird, after Spiritual Direction (2006). It presents spiritual formation as a series of movements of the heart, from one way of living to another, through which the Spirit forms a person over a lifetime. Like its companion, it is arranged for reflection, with stories, exercises and questions for individuals or groups.
