Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

I n this book, we argue that the spiritual life/religious life partly constitutes human flourishing and that religious education can have an important role to play in cultivating a spiritual way of being. We acknowledge the potential contribution that different religions and faith traditions can make toward a young persons spiritual growth, without asserting that spirituality is impossible independent of a religion. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
