    Abstract:
    In this work, the author retraces his philosophical and theological background, sharing with us, essentially, his conclusions with respect to his personal, spiritual journey. Having found himself in a world being propelled forward by social, cultural and religious change and being unsatisfied with the answers provided by his classical formation, he came to find a home in existential, phenomenological philosophy. Within the Western school of scholastic philosophical thought, he viewed the answers to his questions regarding his personal, contemporary experience as rooted in a static past, one with authoritarian answers assumed to be relevant for all time. Influenced by the "ressourcement" partisans of Vatican II as well as by the ‘dehellenization’ of Western philosophy advocated by his teacher and mentor, Leslie Dewart, Savage came to the conclusion that existential phenomenological philosophy provided a method by which his spiritual life was both revitalized and evolutionary. Here he is able to continuously construct his present and future life-world in which are incorporated his relationship with God and with his faith community.
