  • Sacred Space and Communal Purpose: an Exploraton of Athletics, Learning and Spirituality
    SACRED SPACE AND COMMUNAL PURPOSE: AN EXPLORATON OF ATHLETICS, LEARNING AND SPIRITUALITY A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies By Suzanne L. Bailey, B.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. May 2009 SACRED SPACE AND COMMUNAL PURPOSE: AN EXPLORATON OF ATHLETICS, LEARNING AND SPIRITUALITY Suzanne L. Bailey, B.A. Mentor: William J. O’Brien, Ph.D. ABSTRACT As a life-long athlete privileged to compete at the collegiate and international levels, and as a teacher and coach for nearly twenty years, I am fairly conversant in the realms of athletics and learning. The integration of spirituality provides an inviting challenge, as I came to realize over my course of study in the Liberal Studies Program that there has been an underlying but unarticulated spiritual dimension to my pursuits as athlete and educator. Thus, my objective in this thesis is to fuse the realms of athletics, education and spirituality. While I define myself without hesitation as a “team-sport athlete,” I am interested in exploring what this requires of an individual within a community of teammates. This concept of an individual’s role in a team setting is especially compelling in its comparison with an individual’s relationship to a spiritual community. The lives of fourth-century Christian hermits—known as the “spiritual athletes”—in The Desert Fathers , and the Carthusian monks of the film Into Great Silence serve as extraordinary examples of individual effort and sacrifice in support of God-centered community.
