His following book, An Introduction to Christian Spirituality, took a close look at what it takes to be a Christian, including chapters on Faith, Hope and Charity, and how much reliance should be placed on conscience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the present work, like its predecessor available from all good bookshops and on Amazon, Haskell bases himself on what St Paul has to say about charity in 1 Corinthians 13, and emphasises that it is the one essential virtue required of all Christians regardless of their denomination, and that it has to be practised constantly. A common theme linking all three books is that it is by charity, and charity alone, that we shall be saved, and that this is the path that lay Christians, for whom he is mainly writing, should follow if they wish to attain union with God.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe image on the front, by Zvonimir Atletic, represents the Crucifixion, and is taken from Prem Dan, one of the houses established by Mother Teresa and run by the Missionaries of Charity in Kolkata, India.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49596890054929,"sku":"GOR013417882","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1800315708.jpg?v=1751153389"},{"product_id":"introduction-to-christian-spirituality-book-stephen-haskell-9781789558968","title":"An Introduction to Christian Spirituality","description":"\u003cp\u003eStephen Haskell was born in 1931, and lives in south-east London.
