A biblical spirituality for evangelical and charismatic churches in 21st century South AfricaBotha, Craig Frederick 12 1900 (has links)
The Scriptures, as found in the Old and New Testaments, are foundational to a
genuine Christian spirituality. Among the different existing approaches to spirituality,
the evangelical and charismatic churches in South Africa today need to rediscover a
distinctive biblical approach to spirituality for themselves in order to facilitate the
discipleship of their own members. A holistic biblical spirituality can also serve society
in practical ways and challenge the perceptions and practices of a South African
society which is seeking to advance without religious foundations. / Philosophy and Systematic Theology / M.Th. (Christian Spirituality)

The Canticle of spiritual direction : a transformative approach to the Song of SongsLam, Judy Elise 02 1900 (has links)
This dissertation suggests the Song of Songs as a biblical paradigm for Christian spiritual
direction based on the poem’s human dynamics, theological poetics and mystical aesthetic.
The Song of Songs is paradigmatic as a journey from a state of self-neglect (depletion),
through dynamic encounters of love (transformation), to living who I am in union with the
divine I AM (deification). Identifying the human beloved as archetypal seeker and positing
transformation in love as the raison-d’être for spiritual direction, the research delineates
important implications for spiritual praxis, namely: the human subject (locus); human
yearning (focus); the human search (journey); dynamics of human transformation and
spiritual maturation (process); aspects of life-integration and union with God (purpose); and
becoming a living sacrament in the world (epiphany). With its experiential-existential
approach, The Canticle of Spiritual Direction serves as an interdisciplinary and intercultural
resource on the Song of Songs, Christian spiritual direction, and Christian mysticism. / Christian Spirituality, Church History & Missiology / M. Th. (Christian Spirituality)

The Importance of Hebrew for Biblical SpiritualitySpira, Seamus David Ben-Moshe 06 1900 (has links)
The thesis of this dissertation is to explore the importance of Hebrew as contained in the Old Testament or Hebrew Canon, for a grasp of the spirituality or spiritualities of the people we encounter in these texts. Furthermore, to gauge the continued and extended importance of this language knowledge as it pertains to contemporary spirituality or spiritualities based upon these scriptures. This will be done with the laity and academia in mind and hence we will study these spiritualities as they pertain both to experience and academic enquiry. We will also explore the possible personal and societal transformation, which could result from such an investigation. In view of this, we will limit our scope to three test psalms all from Book I of the Psalter; and our assessment of the importance of Hebrew for Biblical Spirituality will be based on only three key areas, namely language, exegesis and continued meaning. / Christian Spirituality / M. Th. (Christian Spirituality)
