"""The growth in publications classified as 'spiritual' has, in recent years, been exponential. Much can be classified as 'popular' rather than 'scholarly' or 'scientific.' This book is a remarkable exception. Most of its contributors are both scholars and practitioners in the field connected to South African academic institutions where they specialize in a variety of theological disciplines. Each chapter could stand alone; together they complement each other and demonstrate the complexity of the discipline. This is a rare and rich resource for those engaged in spiritual formation and leadership."" --John de Gruchy, professor emeritus of Christian studies, University of Cape Town ""The book is a powerful reminder that spirituality serves as a counternarrative to the type of binary thinking that leads to the polarization that currently pervades our world. In a time where we are able to better articulate the complexity of our reality and existence, there is a simultaneous resistance to reconciling diversity. Spirituality connects all and everything and has the potential to help us embrace the paradoxical nature of our existence, between 'everything and nothingness.' A valuable and necessary collection of essays!"" --Tanya van Wyk, associate professor of systematic theology, Christian ethics, and spirituality, University of Pretoria"
