Spirituality and Mysticism

by James A. Wiseman

Book Overview

Spirituality and Mysticism systematically explores the biblical origins and patristic development of a distinct Christian spirituality, from the earliest days of the church, through the middle ages and into modernity. Wiseman concludes with reflections on how the new experience of being a world Christian body has brought the richness of African, Asian, and Latin American experiences to contemporary Christian spirituality.

Spirituality and Mysticism

It's a text for a course, but I am enjoying it tremendously. It's a good overview of early Christianity and the development of spirituality within it.
