Ministers of spiritual formation need a practical theology for becoming Christ-like in compassionate caring thus announcing salvation offered by Christ as another kind of life, especially in its relational aspects, which generates a lasting transformation that lets go of deception and, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, fosters the growth of authentic beings from the inside out. |
