Abstract
  • This project is designed as an introductory course in the roots of Reformed spirituality. The first chapter, Nee Tamen Consumebatur, is an auto-biographical probing of the question: Is there spiritual life beyond Arkansas?The second chapter, The Invitation to Holy Ground, identifies those components of spirituality that are the distinguishing characteristics of Reformed spirituality.The third chapter, The Holy Ground Cleared, explores the positive values of our tradition and the necessity for traditioning. The three characteristics of our Tradition are examined: the catholic, evangelical, and reformed.The fourth chapter, Holy Ground Surveyed, scans the development of a variety of Roman Catholic and Protestant spiritualities with a view to understanding the thread of unity which develops within each tradition. The fifth chapter, The Holy Ground Celebrated, focuses on the ancestral roots of Reformed spirituality as found within the Old and New Testaments, the early church, sixteenth century Reformation down to the Liturgy of 1968.The sixth chapter, The Holy Ground Explored, examines in more detail the unique gifts to Reformed spirituality of our father in God, John Calvin, and other Reformed divines. The seventh chapter, The Holy Ground Appropriated, investigates the rich treasures we have inherited from our Reformed past, but which can be 'recycled for current use' to our profit and advent age. The eighth chapter, A Barthian Postscript, visits the lecture room of Karl Barth to overhear this Reformed theologian set significant priorities for theologians in thinking the thoughts of God after him.
