Description
Summary:With reference to the urban context and the pastoral method of See-Judge-Act, this article explores the social and communal aspects of Christian spirituality. Subsequent to introductory remarks concerning urban passivity and privatised spirituality, the See-Judge-Act method is contextualised with reference to community experiences in Anfield, Liverpool. The contribution of See-Judge-Act to the development of an urban spirituality is further explored through the themes of spiritual depth and self-esteem. The work concludes that a relevant and vibrant urban spirituality must be grounded within 'contemplation-as-reflection-upon-everyday-experience'.
