Before Belief : Discovering First Spiritual Awareness Hardback
by Bruce A. Stevens
Part of the Emerging Perspectives in Pastoral Theology and Care series
Hardback
Description
First things are spiritually and theologically important.
Before Belief explores the precognitive human experience of transcendence, illuminating how such foundational experiences are formative of attachment relationships with people and ultimately with God.
The book proposes an implicit learning model rather than rely on Freud's or Jung's understanding of the unconscious, with a goal of recovering unconscious spiritual learning.
Once discovered and put into language, early learning needs to be tested and integrated into life experience and expressed in committed living.
The theories examined and advanced in the work are also carried through in practical case studies that demonstrate the pastoral and clinical salience of understanding and connecting people to those grounding experiences.
