So what do we exactly mean by spirituality?

​

Spirituality reflects the belief of the vast majority of humanity, including Christians, that we are not merely complicated biological machines - that as well as mind and body we also have a spirit or soul.

​

Jesus is asked what the greatest commandment in Matthew 22:37-38 “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the greatest and the most important commandment.

 

Christian faith points to us being made in the image of God, who is a spiritual being. That image is shown in many different ways but among them are our freedom of will and the responsibility that comes with that, our creativity and our ability to relate to God.

Aristotle once said, "Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all!"
