Book excerpt: While acknowledging the inherent tension between evangelicals who emphasize theological propositions and those who emphasize personal experience, Alister McGrath believes that spirituality represents the interface between ideas and life, between Christian theology and human existence. The book explores the centrality of McGrath's theology in the development of his views on spirituality. McGrath does not approach spirituality from a theological void, but instead uses his theological perspective as the foundation. Through detailed examination of McGrath's previous work and the writing of other evangelicals, The Merging of Theology and Spirituality offers an overview of a unique thinker's contributions and a guide for future theological and spiritual exploration.
