Summary:

Spirituality and Morality is a provocative collection of essays that examine how spirituality and moral theology interact and influence each other on a wide variety of levels. The eight essays, written by Catholic scholars, explore the relationship between spirituality and moral theology from such important vantage points as history, conversion, vocation, personal prayer, liturgy, right relationships, docility to the Spirit, and discipleship. They deal with the issues that emerge at the interface of theology and lived Christian experience. Spirituality and morality, although once intimately united, have developed along different paths in the Roman Catholic theological tradition. Spirituality and Morality offers a significant contribution by developing a practical means for rediscovering the living connection between two disciplines.
