A Spiritual Theology of the Conscience: An Extraordinary Force of Grace
This article invites reflection upon the spiritual theological nature of the conscience as a means to discern God's word in the depths of the soul. Coming from the depths of love and truth, the conscience is an extraordinary, demanding the force of grace. This is because God nurtures the formation of human conscience with the prevenience of grace to give light in darkness. This article explores the darkness and weariness of human existence in ter…
A Spiritual Theology of Pastoral Supervision and Spiritual Direction: Incarnational and Redemptive Ministries of Love in Truth
Pastoral supervision and spiritual direction are inherently personal in nature. They reveal a transformative life of spiritual and soul care demanding the formation of theological reflection, healing, guidance, and discernment. Whilst pastoral supervision serves to guide theological reflection on service and mission, spiritual direction facilitates the moments of awakening to the presence and narrative of God's grace and work in the depths of the…
A Spiritual Theology of Dialogue: Levinas, Burggraeve, and Catholic Theology
Dialogue needs provocative interlocutors. Instilling a grave and shuddering awakening to the conscience, Emmanuel Levinas has provided a corpus of writings unveiling an immemorial horizon and divine calling of infinite responsibility before the other, the brother/sister stranger. Roger Burggraeve has animated Levinas' writings within a Christian theological horizon as a source of formation in the service of promoting biblical wisdom and love in t…
Continental Philosophy and Christian Beliefs: Truth in Being
The mystery of being touches upon the depths of God's truth articulated as love
A Spiritual Theology of Synodality: Towards a Thinking Heart in Catholic Education
Spiritual theology inspires a life of faith towards wisdom and discernment as much as inviting a developing pastoral sense of God's mysteries into a life of service, holiness and humility. Akin to practical theology, spiritual theology is fragmented and interconnects with all areas of theology. The article sets out to put spiritual theology into service to present Pope Francis' ecclesial turn towards synodality within a spiritual and ethical meta…
A Spiritual Theology of Integral Human Development: "To "Grow in Holiness
The article identifies the nature of integral human development as a Christian imperative and an incarnational life of responsibility for others. To grow in holiness through the truth of the Gospel signifies overcoming the egoism of the self, being generous in responsibility (love in truth), and discovering a beatitude of hope to become sons and daughters of God (truth in love). Engaging truth in the light of history, evil, and death, the article…
Pastoral Theology and the Little Goodness: Rejoice and Be Glad with the Voice of Song
precis: The essay aims to develop the nature of pastoral theology through orienting the Christian life of faith through a Jewish sense of otherness as the little goodness. In particular, together Pope Francis's Apostolic Exhortation, Gaudete et exsultate (Rejoice and Be Glad), and Emmanuel Levinas's ethical metaphysics will be a significant inspiration. Perseverance through adversity in the hope of joy and gladness is both a Jewish and a Christia…
I Love People So Terribly: Approaching Affectivity with Levinas, Hillesum, and Christian Theology
Through engaging the writings of two Jewish thinkers, Emmanuel Levinas and Etty Hillesum, this essay sets out to develop a Christian theological approach to affectivity. It begins by introducing Levinas and Hillesum to develop a context for dialogue between Jewish thought and Christian theology. Initiating a phenomenological foundation, the essay suggests that affectivity resonates through the human condition of loneliness and otherness. Building…
Walking, Frontier and Nation: Re/tracing the Songlines in Central Australian Literature
Central Australia is widely characterised as a frontier, a familiar trope in literary constructions of Australian identity that divides black from white, ancient from modern. However, recent anthropological and literary evidence from the Red Centre defies such a clear-cut representation, suggesting more nuanced ‘lifeworlds’ than a frontier binary can afford may better represent the region. Using walking narratives to mark a meeting point between …
