The Brazos Introduction to Christian Spirituality

"Christian spirituality is in vogue in the postmodern twenty-first century. Both colleges and seminaries now offer courses - even advanced degrees - on spiritual formation and spiritual disciplines; for this reason, a straightforward, comprehensive textbook is needed. Enter The Brazos Introduction to Christian Spirituality. This book offers a broad-minded approach that covers Protestant, Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox traditions. In addition, it is interdisciplinary in its approach, drawing from fields such as theology and psychology."--BOOK JACKET.
