Understanding Our Story presents a concise introduction to the original, transformative thinking of Adrian van Kaam, CSSp, PhD (1920-2007). While many books are available on "spiritual formation" and "Christian disciplines," no other author of our time has offered such a holistic and comprehensive explanation of Christian formation and its relationship to the human spirituality of all persons. Understanding our Story culls the most seminal ideas and vocabulary from van Kaam's eleven volumes on formation science, formation anthropology, and formation theology, and provides examples of his theoretical-practical research drawn from everyday life, Scripture, Christian writers, and van Kaam's life story itself. In doing so, it makes his extensive work available to scholars in the field of spiritual formation, and gives all readers the opportunity to utilize his insightful thinking to more fully understand the myriad ways in which God reforms and transforms lives into the image of Christ. In the pluritraditional world in which we live, where so many faith and formation traditions demand our attention, van Kaam's formative spirituality provides a means of respectful dialogue with formationally relevant truths from others and of wise appraisal of ideas that are (and are not) conducive to, and compatible with, the Christian revelation.

Between the Politics of Mysticism and the Mysticism of Politics traces the dialectic of 'the mystical' and the political' from both a theological and an historical perspective. It presents the dialectic as a hermeneutic for the rise of the new ecclesial communities within the Roman Catholic Tradition and suggests it as the framework by which a trajectory for Christian holiness might emerge in the 21st century.

This is the first book to treat the impact of religious, philosophical and psychological traditions of the East on Western intellectuals, artists, travellers and spiritual seekers in the twentieth century. Addressed to both general readers and scholars of religion, it is especially valuable for its penetrating and inter-religious analysis of two of the most compelling themes now facing the world: the emergence of cross-cultural religious understanding of the natural order and ecological crisis and the metaphysical basis for both the formal diversity and essential unity of religious traditions of both East and West. The West has long romanticized the "mysterious" East, but it has, also, judged its traditions as "uncivilized." Our notions about Eastern spirituality have been formed by a succession of travellers, scientists, artists, intellectuals, poets, philosophers and missionaries, as well as by Eastern travellers who have spent time in the West. This book helps us to recognize the influence of Eastern ideas upon modern Western thought by tracing the history of engagements between East and West up until the present day. It concludes with a section that helps us to perceive the timeless value of the many Eastern contributions to the West's current intellectual and spiritual state.

1.1 An introduction to Workplace Spirituality Spirituality in the workplace has been receiving increasing attention in literature since the 1990’s. Several popular books on spirituality and leadership (Conger, 1994; Bolman & Deal, 1995; Crossman, 2015), spirituality and ethics (Ayoun, Rowe & Yassine, 2015) spirituality and entrepreneurship (Chappell, 1994; Cohen & Greenfield, 1997), spirituality and service (Gatling, 2015) have also been published. In 1999 the Academy of Management established a special interest group ‘Management, Spirituality and Religion’ which subsequently developed a large membership. Several academic journals, such as the Journal of Adult Development (2002), Journal of Organizational Change Management (2003), Journal of Management Inquiry (2005), and The Leadership Quarterly (2005), have dedicated special issues to the theme of spirituality. The Journal of Management, Spirituality and Religion was created in 2004, specifically tailored to publishing scholarly work in the area of workplace spirituality, an emerging area in organization and management studies. April 2014, Barcelona, saw a World Congress on Spirituality and Creativity in Management and several organizations are offering corporate workshops, seminars, and culture transformation programs aimed at holistically harnessing both the spirit and the body of employees (ET, 2011; The Telegraph, 2015).Globally, companies are embracing the endeavor to gain competitive advantage through what could be understood as the appropriation of workplace spirituality (Lips-Wiersma et al., 2009). By addressing employees as complete humans, i.e. the recognition of their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs (Dehler &Welsh 2003) organizations can open themselves to transformation. Fry (2003) stated that if organizations are to improve their effectiveness, then, spiritual leadership must be understood for its capability to increase the intrinsic motivation of men by recognizing and incorporating the three elements of humans: body, mind, and spirit. Fry and colleagues, moreover, claim to have established empirically that practitioners of spirituality at the workplace will experience greater psychological and physical well-being (Fry, 2003).
