Description
Summary:In a course called Emotional Intelligence, offered by an evangelical church in Porto Alegre, coaching techniques are used in order to stimulate the "maturity of spirituality" and the "management of emotions" of the participants. Based on an ethnographic research, I discuss in this article the ways in which a sui generis education of spirituality was developed in the course. I emphasize how the notion of spirituality was at the center of the articulations that concatenated coaching techniques with ritual interventions, configuring a Christian coaching. As practiced in the course, the education of spirituality reveals the importance of an immanence regulation regime for the stabilization of theological tensions involving dichotomies such as immanence/transcendence and anthropocentrism/Christocentrism.
