Bengt Hoffman elevates Christian spirituality and spiritual
formation as proper
subjects for serious theological study. This book reveals Luther s
mystical experience of God to be
essential in the development of his theology. It shows how the spiritual
life is foundational to Luther s
understanding of the gospel. Balanced by his emphasis on the external
Word, Luther s experience
of the divine was a critical influence on his understanding of faith and
salvation. This work
demonstrates that theology is not a matter of intellect only, but also of
the whole person s experience.
Dr. Hoffman has given us a truer understanding of Luther and the theology
of the heart in Judeo-
Christian scripture. An important contribution to the recovery of the
church s rich spiritual tradition.
