"""Fr. Fiore has produced a highly impressive and authoritative account of spirituality in the Fourth Gospel. Grounded both in the Johannine text and in reception history, this study explores John's spiritual theology in a careful and coherent way, taking spirituality seriously as an academic discipline in its own right. The book gives valuable insight, not only into Johannine mysticism, but also into John's theology more generally, as well as his spirituality as it engages in dialogue with the Gospel through the tradition."" --Dorothy Lee, author of Hallowed in Truth and Love: Spirituality in the Johannine Literature ""Gabriel-Mary Fiore bravely wrestles with the issue of Johannine spirituality. In a systematic manner he addresses what is meant by spirituality, along with historical synopses of ancient and modern authors who have explored this theme. For scholars, pastors, and interested readers, this book offers an excellent overview of Johannine studies that explore what it is about this Gospel that invites contemplation and evokes an experience of God."" --Mary L. Coloe, author of Dwelling in the Household of God: Johannine Ecclesiology and Spirituality"
