Summary: "Important, clear, and of notable merit for spirituality."
Comment: I recently wrote this book as a doctoral dissertation at the Gregorian University in Rome. It was rewarded a "pluma gregoriana" on May 13, 1997. My thesis moderator, Charles A. Bernard, S.J., had this to say about it: "This book is important, clear, and of notable merit for spirituality." One of the defense judges, John Navone, S.J., wrote the following: "This is an original work that masterfully treats a topic of perennial interest for both spiritual and systematic theologians. It offers a healthy antidote to contemporary tendencies to eliminate the cognitive or doctrinal constituents from considerations of religious experience in general and from considerations of Christian experience in particular. Father Carpenter's work reminds us that the mindless approach to God is not the Christian approach. . . Fr. Carpenter's intelligent use of Bernard Lonergan's transcendental method contextualizes his study within the mainstream of contemporary theology."

Summary: A Masterpiece!
Comment: This book belongs in every seminary. A perfect guide to how one combines the intellectual pursuit of theology with deep spirituality. This thesis should be carefully studied and highlighted liberally as it is a book one can pick up again and again, leaving the session closer to God each time. A masterpiece for every Catholic student!
