Fw: special ways of holiness

[Rob Bos]

Richard Foster's books are still worth reading. Another useful book is Robin Maas and Gabriel O'Donnell, "Spiritual Traditions for the Contemporary Church" (Abingdon, 1990). I can recommend websites on particular expressions of spirituality (Benedictine, Celtic, Franciscan, Reformed, Ignatian etc), but not on holiness in general.

Are there any sites from which one can obtain quotations from various religious leaders on the topic and perhaps gain a view on the past?   My ordinary ways of holiness are pretty rare and therefore special to me.   Stephen
