The Making of the New Spirituality: The Eclipse of the Western Religious Tradition Author: James A. Herrick Retail Price: $16.00 Our Price: $11.99 Save: 4.01 (25.06%) Availability: In Stock        A massive shift in Western religious attitudes has taken place almost without our noticing it. The Judeo-Christian tradition of Western culture has slowly but steadily been eclipsed by a new way of viewing spirituality. Although the new spirituality is diffuse and electric in its sources and manifestations, James A. Herrick demonstrates a significant convergence of ideas, beliefs, assumptions, convictions and images in the myriad ways this New Religious Synthesis makes its way into our culture. In fact, the new spirituality, say Herrick, directly calls into question each major tenet of Judeo-Christian tradition and so represents a radical alternative to it. Interest in spirituality increases while participation in institutional religion wanes. Many welcome this evolution of religion. However, few are familiar with its roots, and fewer still have critically examined its prospects. As we stand at a spiritual crossroad, Herrick questions whether we are wise to discard the Western religious tradition and adopt the new spirituality. Similar Items you may enjoy!
