Three thousand\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eonlookers were set afire by the same love that brought hope for them, too; a new Church was born. This book details more clearly than ever\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethe God-given spirituality that Jesus Christ first lived, loved, and practised for himself before introducing it into the early Church. It details the new Mystical Spirituality that was its heart and soul and shows how it was understood and practised more widely and more deeply in those first Christian centuries than in any other century since. This profound practice is particularly true at the beginning of the twenty-first century when the Mystical Theology that was the leitmotiv of early Christianity seems not just to have been forgotten but positively rejected. This book insists that we must cast aside the wrongs and the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewrongdoing that have since disfigured it and return to our long-lost spiritual heritage without delay. For without it, Christian reform, renewal, or renaissance (call it what you will) will be impossible, and the secular 'spiritualities' of our \"me-me\" world will continue to dominate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-344377\"\u003eDavid Torkington\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mercier Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 278\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781917453462\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1917453469\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-PHI\"\u003ePhilosophy\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-PHI022000\"\u003eReligious\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POL\"\u003ePolitical Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POL072000\"\u003eReligion, Politics \u0026amp; State\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL010000\"\u003eChristianity | Catholic | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Mercier Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48458710778093,"sku":"9781917453462","price":22.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_d5f724d0-d005-4abb-9f1b-68275495e561.jpg?v=1753618193","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/early-christian-spirituality-9781917453462","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
