In POSTMODERN SPIRITUALITY IN THE AGE OF ENTITLEMENT, impatience, quickness, and the need for instant gratification unconsciously push the postmodern person towards "social and spiritual shallowness." Attempting to cope with an ever-increasing flow and flood of information, knowledge, and data, we skim and scan, instead of deep reading and absorption. David Robson weaves numerous thoughtful and stimulating viewpoints from other noted experts combined with his timely insights into how our world was affected by the shift to a post-modernism society. This substantial work was written after years of research, study, and contemplation with the goal of stimulating each reader on their own path of spiritual awareness and personal growth.

David John Robson begins by leading the reader through an overview of postmodernism, and how it affects and changed Western Society, Western Christianity, and, in turn, Western Spirituality. Also addressed are chapters on the major trends surrounding postmodernism spirituality. The author poses questions are at the end of each chapter for the individual reader or discussion group to consider and discuss. Throughout this work, David challenges the reader to embrace the future of both community and corporate spirituality, and especially the exploration of one's own spirituality in the age of our dominating, "It's all about me" society.

Övrig information

After completing his undergraduate at the University of Toronto in his hometown, David entered seminary and graduated with his M. Div. from the College of Emmanuel and St. Chad, Saskatoon, SK, in 1981. He was ordained as a deacon and priest in the Anglican Church of Canada. David spent the first half of his ordained parish ministry in his native Ontario. In these years, through many very early mornings, he completed both a Th.M. on police stress, a M.Ed. on pre-marriage education at Queen's University, Kingston, and additional clinical training while fully engaged in parish ministry. He spent much time in the community as a police, fire, and hospital chaplain. He was also a volunteer fire fighter.In 1999, he became the rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Philipsburg, PA,* along with the Chapel of the Good Shepherd, Hawk Run. At this time, he completed his D. Min. in educating clergy in local settings. In 2005, while remaining in the Diocese of Central Pennsylvania, he accepted the call as the rector of St. Andrew's York, PA, where he remained upon retirement. David is an honorary Canon of St. Stephen's Cathedral, Harrisburg. Today, he assists at Christ Church Anglican, Belleville, where he began his ordained ministry and met his wife, Lynn. Their son John and family live nearby.This book clearly shows his love of reading and reflection! He enjoys gardening because it soothes the spirit and cannot be tackled quickly.* This was the first church in the USA to have electric lights; however, the DC current proved very noisy, and the lights were removed two years after installation. PS, this was long before my time.
