Defining Christian Spirituality

Topic: Using Dr. Garzon’s article, succinctly define Christian Spirituality, as well as contrast the secular use of spirituality with the Christian Spirituality as reflected by Dr. Garzon. Also, using Dr. Watts’ article, give your appraisal of the effectiveness of a secular therapist using spirituality in counseling with a Christian client. Would this be effective? Could a secular therapist give thoughtful attention and respect to a Christian client? What would be the limitations of this type of counseling relationship? Reflect your reading, viewing of presentations, and convictions in your response. Reply to at least 2 classmates' posts and explain why you agree or disagree with their views they posted. Be sure to cite at least 1 source.

Remember this is graduate level work, so make sure your thread and replies substantively engage the material and cites/references according to the most current APA Manual. You may want to review again the Discussion Instructions document before proceeding.
