With the ecumenical tradition, we affirm the anthropology of the unquiet heart, summed up in Augustine???s well-known prayer: ???You have made us for Your self and our heart finds no rest until it rests in You.??? What is most fundamental about human persons is their need and desire for God. ??? Faith enacted in prayer has public social consequences. ??? In both the shaping of our character and in our outward behavior in the public world, Christian Spirituality is a sign of the Kingdom of God. The purpose of the Spirituality program is to provide an ecumenical and collaborative teaching learning experience that focuses on Christian Spirituality. What is Spirituality? Sandra Schneiders defines spirituality as ???the experience of consciously striving to integrate one???s life in terms not of isolation and self-absorption, but of self-transcendence toward the ultimate value one perceives.??? She adds, ???If the ultimate concern is God revealed in Jesus Christ and experienced through the gift of the Holy Spirit within the life of the Church, one is dealing with Christian Spirituality.??? Students in the program come from Catholic and Protestant communities of faith and are lay persons and clergy engaged in a variety of ministries. View more details on Bellarmine University .
