Inhaltsangabe

At a time when the subject of spirituality means everything, yet nothing, Dr. Gregory J. Laughery offers us a deeply insightful and profound theological meditation that aims to illuminate and clarify the truly spiritual life. Challenging us to think seriously about our orientations towards life or towards death, Laughery perceptively relocates spirituality on the map of Scripture and leads us through it on the journey to our destiny. This bold and thought provoking book will capture our souls, confront our preconceived ideas, and direct our lives to the core of living spirituality.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Gregory J. Laughery (D.Th., University of Fribourg, Suisse) lives and writes in Switzerland. This book is the next exciting step of the journey from time, narrative, and memory, to imagination. Living Imagination. Who Am I & What is Real? is the culmination of several years of reflection on Imagination and how it has been perceived by philosophers, poets, and theologians. Laughery shows that many, especially Christians, have viewed imagination negatively. His book critiques this inadequate 'picture' and replaces it with a much more positive orientation. He writes: "When we lose the ability to understand that centaurs and dragons are more real than technology and mechanisms, we're in deep trouble. Impoverished imaginations destroy faith and meaning, whereas living imaginations promote them."
