Opis

Take the discussion of spirituality and religion to a new level in Ray A. McKinnis's groundbreaking new book, "Putting Spirit into Spirituality and Order into Religion."

When the American Counseling Association published a series of essays to assist counselors interested in incorporating religion and spirituality into their practices, McKinnis noticed a distinct lack of options for those who wished to take the conversation a bit deeper. His response, this book, offers a refreshingly different perspective, one that challenges contemporary thinking on what "religion" really means-especially the use of the word "god" and the implementation of what are typically considered "spiritual" exercises-almost all are ways of removing the disturbing life-changing force of the spirit.

With frankness and clarity, McKinnis discusses the nuances of religion and spirituality as they relate to current counseling theories. While geared toward counselors who want to use these topics in their sessions, this eye-opening read also offers invaluable insight for college instructors, religious researchers, or even casual readers who desire a serious discussion about these often controversial topics.

Help your patients, students, and yourself by engaging in a conversation that moves beyond an elementary understanding of morality. Insight awaits-if you're willing to look for it.
