Geistesgegenwart
Spiritualitat in der theologischen Ausbildung und im Pfarramt
edited by Dietrich Korsch and Johannes Schilling
German description: Spiritualitat ist ein Schlusselwort in religiosen Diskursen geworden. Allerdings ist es weitgehend unbestimmt und beliebig, was darunter verstanden werden soll. Darum ist es in Theologie und Kirche auch unentschieden, wie mit dem Phanomen umzugehen ist. Das vorliegende Buch versteht Spiritualitat von der Gegenwart des Geistes Gottes her, wie er im Menschen wirkt – und ihn in seiner individuellen Menschlichkeit bestimmt. Dadurch wird der Begriff genau bestimmt und es tritt seine Verwandtschaft mit dem zutage, was in der evangelischen Tradition Frommigkeit genannt wird. Man kann dann erkennen: Spiritualitat ist in der theologischen Praxis immer schon da; darum kann sie auch gebildet werden. Wie das in der theologischen Ausbildung und in der pfarramtlichen Praxis geschehen kann, zeigen die empirischen, historischen und systematischen Beitrage dieses Buches aus der Sicht von Kirchenleitung und Universitatstheologie. Mit Beitragen von Ilsabe Alpermann, Martin Evang, Bernhard Dressler, Jurgen Kampmann, Dietrich Korsch, Kristina Kuhnbaum-Schmidt, Johannes Schilling, Adelheid Ruck-Schroder und Regina Sommer. English summary: “Spirituality” has become a key word in religious discourses. Yet it is largely unclear and arbitrary how one should understand it. Thus it is undecided also in theology and church how to deal with the phenomenon. The present book understands spirituality in terms of the presence of God’s spirit as it works in human beings – and determines them in their individual humanity. In this way, the concept is precisely defined, while making visible the concept’s relationship to what is called piety in the Protestant tradition. Thus one can see that spirituality is always already present in theological practice; that is why it can also be formed. How this can occur in theological education and in pastoral practice is shown in the empirical, historical and systematic contributions of this book from the perspective of church leadership and university theology.
