The Broken Image: Reflections on Spirituality and Culture
No Customer Reviews
Post-modern culture is like a broken mirror. Secular and religious certainties are fragmenting. All that remains are jagged shards that can only reflect partial truths. In this thought-provoking but practical book, Pat Collins reflects on a variety of contemporary issues in the light of Christian spirituality. First he looks at psycho-spiritual reflections on such things as intimacy, empathy, violence, envy, psychosomatic health, and boundary violations in ministry. He then turns to spiritual reflections on topics such as popular devotion, reading and praying the scriptures, the indwelling of Christ, science and petitionary prayer, and some spiritual teachings of St Therese of Lisieux. Finally, he reflects on evangelization, dealing with subjects such as atheistic attitudes, Catholic evangelicals, and preaching in a time of transition
