It has been over 5 years since professors of Spirituality and Spiritual Theology gathered for the Evolving Methodologies Conference, organized by the international committee of the Society for the Study of Christian Spirituality (SSCS) and the Forum dei Professori di Teologia Spirituale in Italia (FPTSI). The Conference (25-28 September 2019) was sponsored by the OFM Pontificia Università Antonianum and had 38 speakers from all five continents: Africa, America, Asia, Europe and Oceania.
The speakers, representing 16 different nations and multiple cultures and Christian denominations, brought a rich diversity of perspectives and ideas. These professors were chosen from over 70 proposals because they are at the “cusp of the development of the scholarly enterprise and the definition and understanding of” (5) the sister disciplines of Spirituality and Spiritual Theology.
