## Bibliography[edit]

Liminal Reality and Transformational Power, 2nd edition[6] explores the outer and inner aspects of liminality, addressing the history of the discipline with mythological and psychological underpinnings, and an application of the concepts to theology, biblical hermeneutics, symbolism, and practical applications for those engaged in religious leadership. These concepts are used by scholars throughout the world: Levan Gigineishvili to analyze Ioane Petritsi’s Preface to His Annotated Translation of the Book of Psalms [7], Maka Elbakidze to analyze The Knight in the Panther’s Skin in the context of an anthropological theory of liminality [8], Hunn Choi of Asbury University to address challenges Christian churches face in increasing ethnic and lingual diversity in the face of growing globalization [9], Elefteria Vlavianos to discuss translating a visual aesthetic within the fold of postmemory [10], Jan Johannes Ahlrichs, Kai Riehle, and Nurzat Sultanalieva to do a comparative study of ritual places[11], Charis R. Davidson, Gabrielle M. Turner-McGrievy, DeAnne K. Hilfinger Messias, Daniela B. Friedman, Alyssa G. Robillard to explore campus ministry leaders’ engagement with students in the secular context of a public university and tensions with others in campus ministry [12], Keith Dwayne Lyon to examine the popular outdoor revivals of the 19th Century in terms of their physical, temporal and liturgical structure, worship practices, conversion experiences, spiritual meanings, and ecstatic devotions [13], Mary Walker to develop a liminal framework for facilitators who guide groups to create future-orientated knowledge within business contexts [14].

Crossing Thresholds: A Practical Theology of Liminality[15] co-authored by Timothy Carson, Rosy Fairhurst, Nigel Rooms, and Lisa Withrow, defines aspects of liminality vis-à-vis its practical applications in religious life. The book includes a conceptual description of liminality as well as applications for hermeneutics, liturgy, ecclesiology, leadership, learning, faith formation, and pastoral care and crisis. Nelus Niemandt uses the concepts in the work to examine a missional rhythm of life as a model for the Dutch Reformed Church's engagement with transforming discipleship [16], Daniela B. Abraham to explore ways in which language learning collaborations based on Benedictine hospitality can cultivate community [17], Nigel Rooms to explore recovering “right brain” apophatic spirituality [18], Emma Pavey to examine practical theologies that embrace change as a part of lived experience, with a focus on the underpinning concepts of time, human agency, relational freedom and embodied, shared power [19].

Leaning into the Liminal: A Guide for Counselors and Companions[20] utilizes a model informed by liminality in The Rites of Passage process and serves as a pan-theoretical resource for counselors, therapists, religious leaders, spiritual directors, and chaplains. It includes reflections on the role of the liminal guide, as well as contributions by seven other authors who address a variety of therapeutic models, healing the wounds of war, spiritual direction, and guiding through the end passages of life.

Neither Here nor There: The Many Voices of Liminality, Carson, ed[21] is an anthology with contributions by Carson and eighteen other authors. Topics include poetic interpretations, Central American notions of the in-between, pilgrimage, spiritual transformation, crisis passages, war, natural disaster, cross-cultural adoption, climate change and spirituality, religious shifts, cyborgs, critical illness, prison, social collapse and reconstruction, gender, and communities in conflict.

The Liminal Loop: Astonishing Stories of Discovery and Hope[22] is an anthology with contributions by Carson and eighteen other authors. Topics include extreme adventure, initiation, process of transition, ritual, complex liminalities, spiritual practices, black experience, education abroad, genocide, therapeutic practices, ecological collapse, and the arts.
