Christian Spirituality Group


The Christian Spirituality Group serves as a forum for scholars working in the interdisciplinary field of Christian spirituality. It is committed to developing, refining, and demonstrating appropriate methodologies for the academic study of spirituality; to exploring models for describing and facilitating interdisciplinary conversation on the nature of spirituality among religion scholars of all perspectives and religions; to initiating discussion in the field of global spirituality, both religious and secular; to articulating the connections between scholarship and spiritual practice; to insuring diversity in denominational affiliation, gender, race, and ethnic backgrounds; and to focusing on the retrieval and contemporary assimilation of issues of central interest to the field itself. Our AAR sessions and panels are intended to expand dialogue, understanding, research, writing, and teaching in the area of spirituality in general, and of Christian spirituality in particular.
