DANTE: Spiritual Theologian and Guide
The Divine Comedy is simultaneously one of the greatest poems ever written as well as one of the most profound presentations of the spiritual life, containing a well-developed and robust spiritual theology. Using Dante's masterpiece as guide this retreat will explicate Dante's theology of Christian living as well as his theology of grace, which makes the Christian journey to union with God possible.
