by E. Glenn Hinson
Highly regarded as a pioneer in the modern renewal of interest in spiritual development, Glenn Hinson has continued to blaze the trail for “seekers after mature faith.” The earlier version of A Serious Call to a Contemplative Lifestyle was reviewed by many as a classic on spirituality. Here in his revised edition, Hinson goes even further in overcoming the compartmentalization of the devotion life that plagues contemporary approaches to spiritual growth. He seeks to show how one can integrate commitment to God with what one does in everyday living by approaching all of life from the perspective of communion, communication, and conversation with God.
E. Glenn Hinson is Professor of Spirituality, Worship, and Church History at Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond, Virginia. For thirty years he was David T. Porter Professor of Church History at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. He has also taught at Wake Forest University, Catholic University of America, Notre Dame University, St. John’s University in Collegeville, Minnesota, and the Baptist Theological Seminary in Rüschlikon, Switzerland.
