The Spirituality of the German Awakening

This addition to the distinguished Classics of Western Spirituality series introduces readers to the faith and work of four figures of the 19th-century revival movement called the German Awakening:

-August Tholuck (1799-1871)
-Theodor Fliedner (1800-1864)
-Johann Hinrich Wichern (1808-1881)
-Friedrich von Bodelschwingh (1831-1910)

The German Awakening engendered a spirituality that fostered human kindness, grounded it in awakened faith, and gave it the shape of loving service to society.

This remarkable and unique scholarly contribution:

-translates the majority of its materials for the first time in English.
-includes a variety of spiritual genres-sermons, hymns, commentaries, mission statements, etc.
-brings the fascinating lives, faith and work of these men to the attention of a broader audience.
-has a preface by the eminent theologian Martin E. Marty.
