View source for Incurvatus in se

'''''Incurvatus in se''''' is Latin for "curved inward on oneself." The concept was developed by [[Saint Augustine]] of Hippo and expanded by [[Martin Luther]].<ref>[http://libweb.ptsem.edu/collections/barth/reviews/gravityofsin.aspx?menu=296&subText=468&disclaimer=668 The Gravity of Sin: Augustine, Luther, and Barth on Homo Incurvatus in Se] book review by Jason T. Ingalls (July 23, 2008) Princeton Seminary Library, retrieved September 9, 2011</ref> It refers to the mindset of focusing on oneself rather than focusing outwardly on [[God]] and the church community.
