Spirituality

What is Christian Spirituality? Christianity Spirituality is the quest for a fulfilled and authentic life, that involves taking the beliefs and values of Christianity & weaving them into the fabric of our lives so that they ‘animate’, provide the ‘breath’ and ‘spirit’ and ‘fire’ for our lives.

Characterizing the Anglican Spirit

‘The Anglican spirit was still, as it had always been, one which refused to separate:
  the sacred from the secular,
  the head from the heart,
  the individual from the community,
  the Protestant from the Catholic,
  the word from the sacrament.'
- Gordon Mursell
 
Anglican Spirituality has frequently been described as incarnational because it has taken this doctrine to heart to emphasize:
  the goodness of material world and sensuality (God's creation) 
  a sacramental view of the material world as the  doorway to the divine 
  a tendency at times towards the Orthodox doctrine of theosis  - God became human so that humans might become divine, emphasizing:
  our participation in the life of God
  our ultimate goal of communion with God

If you want to know more about Anglican spirituality in the 20th Century
one important part has been an increasing interest in the English Mystics of the 14th century (Richard Rolle, anonymous author of The Cloud of Unknowing, Walter Hilton, Julian of Norwich, Margery Kempe), seen in the writings of:
  T.S. Eliot
  Evelyn Underhill
  W.R. Inge

Every Century has had its great contributors to Anglican spirituality: Keble, Newman and Pusey of the Oxford Movement in the 19th Century, Wesley and Isaac Watts in the 18th Century, George Herbert and John Donne before them. Google any of these great names in Anglican thinking and you will open mind and heart to the possibilities of God.
