Jean Khoury proposes a shift toward an integral theological formation that bridges the gap between academic study and the interior life. He argues that traditional theology often focuses on external doctrines, leaving the spiritual experience of the believer underdeveloped and secondary. To remedy this, the text outlines a project for a Faculty of Mysticism, which would provide a scientific and structured study of spiritual theology as a primary discipline. This new framework uses the "Schema of the Key" to align five core branches of theology—such as Dogma and Scripture—with their internal, mystical counterparts. Ultimately, the author calls for a synthesis of knowledge and experience, positioning personal holiness and the encounter with the Risen Christ at the heart of all religious education.
