In this fresh approach to Christian spirituality, John Driver shows that the spirituality of the disciples and the early Christian church included every dimension of life. Grounded in the example of Jesus himself, this holistic approach to spirituality finds expression in the visible witness of the Christian community, and in the daily lives of faithful Christians who seek to embody Christ’s presence in the world in service to others. This approach to Christian spirituality was recovered in a remarkable way by the radical reformers of the sixteenth century – the Anabaptists – and it continues to find expression among a wide variety of Christian groups around the world today. Life Together in the Spirit will inspire, challenge, and encourage you to experience the presence of the Spirit in all of its dimensions.
This edition, revised and expanded with responses and reflections from church leaders and scholars around the world, is the seventh publication in the “Global Anabaptist-Mennonite Shelf of Literature,” an initiative of Mennonite World Conference. Contributors include Mvwala C. Katshinga (Democratic Republic of Congo), Christina Asheervadam (India), Rafael Zaracho (Paraguay), Hermann Woelke (Uruguay), Paulus Pan (Taiwan), Patricia Urueña (Colombia), and Nellie Mlotshwa (Zimbabwe).
John Driver—missionary, professor, theologian—worked for many years as a missionary for the Mennonite Board of Missions in Puerto Rico, Uruguay, Argentina and Spain, and has continued to travel regularly to Latin America, the Caribbean, and Spain for teaching assignments. Driver has been a professor in several seminaries and Anabaptist institutions in Latin America. He has written numerous books in both Spanish and English, including Community and Commitment (1976), How Christians Made Peace with War (1988), Images of the Church in Mission (1997), and Radical Faith: An Alternative History of the Christian Church (1999). John and his wife Bonnie now live in Goshen, Indiana.
