Spiritual Autobiography

Catalog description

Taught by GTU. Spiritual Autobiography: Purposes and Approaches Reflecting on substantial excerpts from a range of narratives (and some poetry) about the spiritual "journey," this course will offer an opportunity to explore why this genre continues to be important, not only for personal reflection and spiritual development, but also as a resource for communities-families, churches, and any group that recognizes the spiritual dimension of collaborative living. Students will be writing several experimental pieces and ultimately a short version of (or chapter of) their own spiritual journeys, with an introduction reflecting on their own narrative strategies.
