Traditions of Christian Spirituality
Book Description “Bradley Hanson provides a much needed primer in Lutheran spirituality.” —Gordon W. Lathrop, Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia
Some consider the idea of “Lutheran spirituality” an oxymoron—a species of “works righteousness.” It is not so much based on techniques or specific practices, but on an attitude of trust and faith in God’s grace. In relationship with Christ the believer is free from the never-ending quest to earn good standing with God, and at the same time free for service to
God and others.
Bradley Hanson is director of the Grace Institute for Spiritual Formation and Professor Emeritus of Religion at Luther College, Decorah, Iowa.
