"Spiritual Maturity", the 2015 entry in the Mary Millligan RSHM Lecture in Spirituality Series, explores a variety of questions about the human, and Christian, experience: what is maturity? What is the meaning of discipleship? What is a blessing - how does it work, what is its purpose? How does a blessing contract with, and therefore in some respects define, a curse?
Father Ronald Rolheiser OMI explores these questions with an avuncular, everyday charm. His work is designed to connect with young Christians, in particular.
