In this book, Joann Wolski Conn demonstrates how psychology and
spirituality are integrally related to human maturity. Her book
maintains that Christian spirituality, which encourages
self-denial, can be entirely compatible with contemporary
psychology which promotes self-fulfillment. Conn uses case studies
in the practice of the ministries of pastoral counseling and
spiritual direction, especially when these ministries deal woth her
inner struggles of spiritual darkness and psychological depression.
The author demonstrates the possibility of genuine experimental
integration of Christian spirituality and contemporary psychology
by paying equal attention to women's and men's experiences.
Bringing her own perspective from ministry and feminist theology to
a variety of case studies, she illustrates how pastoral counselors
and spiritual dictators can enable those in their care to discern
God's action in the ordinary events of life. Originally published
in 1989 by Paulist Press.
