Synopsis

A renewed interest in spirituality is sweeping the world, but the term "spirituality" can encompass everything from Protestant evangelistic fervor to New Age mysticism. Exploring Christian Spirituality seeks to identify what is distinctive about Christian spirituality. In this collection of twenty-four essays, Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Lutheran, Reformed, Anglican, and Methodist writers describe the unique forms of spirituality that have emerged from their traditions. Other essays show how theology can inform spirituality and how the doctrine of the Trinity gives Christian spirituality its unique character. Additional topics explored are the role of Scripture in shaping Christian spirituality and the feminist perspective on spirituality.
