Unknown Author

4.9/5 (26287 ratings)

Description:The American religious landscape is experiencing a decline in formal affiliation and attendance, but a vastly increasing interest in spirituality. According to a 2010 survey conducted by LifeWay Research, 72% of people age 17-29 consider themselves spiritual, rather than religious. The definition of “spiritual” in this rising designation is unclear, and may or may not include any personal or communal practice. Conversely, those who actively participate in a religious institution may count a weekly service of worship as the only spiritual practice they’ve ever known. Other expressions or notions of spirituality may be much less familiar, and even cause discomfort. Coffeehouse Contemplative: Spirituality for the Everyday, through anecdote, engagement with scripture, theological reflection, and practical application, explores a definition of spirituality for those who are either unclear about the term’s meaning, or haven’t considered it despite a lifetime of religious participation. Over the course of this book, the reader will be introduced to a variety of thinkers including Ignatius of Loyola, Brother Lawrence, Karl Rahner, and Teresa of Avila. Their writings and traditions will help shape a definition of spirituality as seeking a deeper connection with God and understanding of self, wherever we are and in whatever we do. To encourage further consideration of the subject matter, each chapter will include a list of questions for reflection in an individual or group context.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
