Take Lord and Receive All My Memory: Toward an Anamnestic Mysticism - The Pere Marquette Lecture in Theology J. Matthew Ashley

Explores the possibility of looking at the Christian spiritual life as a journey in which the way one remembers is gradually transformed, culminating in a union of memories with Gods memory. It does so partly in response to the need to remember correctly, both as individuals and as a society, both joyful events worthy of celebration, and atrocities that require lamentation and repentance.
