The New Super-Spirituality
For For readers of True Spirituality wanting his short warning about spirituality cut loose from the mind and from Scripture; not a book to start with.
A short piece published by InterVarsity Press in 1972 in the L'Abri pamphlet format (the 1974 Hodder edition runs to 48 pages). It follows up True Spirituality (1971) with a warning about forms of spirituality that set aside the mind and the content of Christian teaching in favour of experience, which Schaeffer saw spreading in the church and its youth movements in the early 1970s. Secondary summaries connect it with the charismatic movement of the time and with his charge that such spirituality is closer to Platonism than to the Bible. It was collected in the third volume of The Complete Works of Francis A. Schaeffer (1982), A Christian View of Spirituality, beside No Little People, True Spirituality and Two Contents, Two Realities.
