Befriending the Stranger

In Befriending the Stranger Jean Vanier reflects on who we are and how we build our communities and in particular asks can we be truly compassionate towards others if we are not compassionate towards ourselves? In a series of six meditative pieces he opens up Gods invitation to us today in the midst of all the violence and corruption of the world to create new places of belonging and sharing of peace and kindness where each one is loved and accepted with ones own fragility abilities and disabilities.
