Summary
Glen G. Scorgie: Dictionary of Christian Spirituality
In recent decades, Christian spirituality, spiritual formation, and spiritual theology have become important concepts in the global evangelical community. Consequently, there is a need for an accessible and reliable academic resource on these topics—one that will offer an insightful orientation to the wealth of ecumenical resources available while highlighting the special heritage and affirming the core values of classical grace-centered evangelical spirituality. The Dictionary of Christian Spirituality reflects a comprehensive interpretive framework for evangelical spiritual formation: a holistic and grace-filled spirituality that encompasses relational (connecting), transformational (becoming), and vocational (doing) dynamics. At the same time, the contributors respectfully acknowledge the differences between Reformed, Holiness, and Pentecostal paradigms of spiritual life. Bringing together writers from around the world who share a common orthodoxy, this reference work is truly global and international in both its thematic scope and contributors. The entries pay due attention to concepts, concerns, and formative figures in the evangelical tradition of spirituality that other reference works ignore. They offer insightful insight into the wealth of ecumenical resources available, exploring the similarities and differences between Christianity and alternative spiritualities without falling into relativism. The Dictionary of Christian Spirituality is a resource that covers a wide range of topics related to Christian spirituality and is biblically engaging, accessible and relevant for all contemporary Christians.
