I skimmed through the above named book this morning.
It's by Eugene Petersen the renowned master in spirituality.
It's a book on clearing misunderstandings in spirituality.
His four main thesis are these.
1. To dispel elitism by two bible stories from Nichodemus and Samaritan woman in John 3-4
2. To conteract self-helpism by three texts on Gen 1,mark 1 and Acts 2
3. To correct cultural fuzziness through interpreting four terms: Spirituality,Jesus,Soul and the Fear of the Lord.
4. To use Perichoresis (Around the Dance) and talk on Trinity to do away secular horizon.
The book then works on three parts : Creation,history and community,clearing three wrong paths in gnosticism,moralism and sectarianism
A well thought through and well written book !
