Spiritual and Religious

Overview

"The most important scholar of religion in today's America." -- James Carroll

Noting that the commonly expressed dichotomy between spirituality and religion is often a false one, esteemed scholar Roger Haight argues that religion, church, and church structures all have their source and ground in spirituality. The broad range of topics explored in this collection of essays offers rich fruit to a seeking, questioning generation that is drawn to spirituality but not always to dogmatic religion.

Roger Haight, a Jesuit priest, is Scholar in Residence at Union Theological Seminary, New York City. A former president of the Catholic Theological Society of America, his many books include Jesus Symbol of God, Dynamics of Theology, Christian Spirituality for Seekers, and Spirituality Seeking Theology.
