About this book

Die Sammlung von Aufsätzen und Beiträgen aus mehr als drei Jahrzehnten umfasst inhaltlich die Zeitspanne von der Entstehung evangelischer Kommunitäten und deren anfänglicher Ablehnung durch die Kirchen und mancher Mitchristen bis hin zur gegenwärtigen Anerkennung und Wertschätzung. Es wird vom Werden transparochialen verbindlichen gemeinsamen Lebens berichtet. Dabei wird auch auf den Vorwurf eingegangen, diese Lebensform sei »katholisch«.Wollen die Kommunitäten »etwas Besonderes« sein? Nein, insofern sie in der Nachfolge Christi leben, die allen Christenmenschen aufgetragen ist. Sie tun das aber besonders intensiv dank des gemeinsamen Lebens, wodurch Reibungen und Schmerzen nicht ausbleiben können. Wo diese mit der Hilfe Gottes durchgestanden werden, entsteht eine Strahlkraft, die anziehend wirkt. Je länger je mehr wird den Kommunitäten aber auch bewusst, dass sie diesen Schatz »in irdenen Gefäßen« tragen. Das erdet ihre Spiritualität, deren unterschiedliche Ausformung und Auffächerung in den verschiedenen Darstellungen zum Ausdruck kommt. Einige Einblicke in das Leben der Jesus-Bruderschaft Gnadenthal runden die Aufsatzsammlung ab.[Community and Spirituality. Collected Essays]This collection of essays and contributions from more than three decades covers the period from the emergence of Protestant communities and their initial rejection by the churches and fellow Christians up to their present-day recognition and appreciation. It reports on the development of transparochial binding common life. It also addresses the charge that this form of life is »catholic«.Do the communities want to be »something special«? No, insofar as they live in the discipleship of Christ, which is incumbent upon all Christians. But they do it especially intensely thanks to the common life in which frictions and pains cannot fail to materialize. Where these are endured with the help of God, a radiant and attractive power emerges. The longer the communities exist, the more they are aware that they carry this treasure »in earthen vessels«. This grounds their spirituality, which is expressed in different ways in the various representations. Insights into the life of the Jesus brotherhood of Gnadenthal round off the collection of essays.
