Is Qualitative Research the Best or Only Way to Study Lived Theology
This is my body’
Over thirty years ago, I (1988) argued for moral and religious ways of dying in face of medicalized and psychologised death. But impediments to dying as a spiritual process have not gone away; if anything, they have become more challenging. Western Cartesian medical practices continue to sever body from soul, people from community, and health care from ecological concern. How then do those with religious convictions about soul, community, and ear…

The Wiley‐Blackwell Companion to Practical Theology
"Through a series of essays contributed by leading experts in the field, The Wiley-Blackwell Companion to Practical Theology presents an introduction to practical theology as a major area of Christian study and practice, including an overview of its key developments, themes, methods, and future directions: the first comprehensive reference work to provide a survey, description and analysis of practical theology as an area of study; a range of lea…

Practising What We Preach
This essay celebrates the fortieth anniversary of women's ordination in the Church of Scotland as an occasion to consider the tension between proclamation and practice. Starting with stories of women's ministry as illustrative, it then explores a case within this case—self-sacrifice in women's lives. This examination reveals how deeply embedded Christian theology is within common life. To make changes in the family (e.g., share care of children) …

Teaching Practical Theology
In April 2006, the Association of Practical Theology (APT) in the United States hosted its biennial meeting at Vanderbilt University under the title, “Practical Theology and Its Sub-Disciplines: Pedagogies and Their Implications for Practical Theology.” Panel presentations from six areas (education, worship, pastoral care, homiletics, leadership, and social mission) explored the distinctive character of teaching in each sub-discipline, what they …
The “Clerical Paradigm”
Perception of the “clerical paradigm” as the main problem of practical theology and theological education has perpetuated a “fallacy of misplaced concreteness,” as philosopher Alfred North Whitehead might say, or the mistaking of a helpful generalization for concrete reality. Does the concept of the clerical paradigm adequately comprehend the problems, or does it contain hidden prejudice against practice and doubts about the church itself? This a…

From Culture Wars to Common Ground
Covenant and Commitments
Ethicist Max Stackhouse challenges libertarian and liberationist arguments that distort the nature and character of love, sexuality, and commitment. He seeks to recover a covenantal ethic, which would recapture the value of strong family relationships. The Family, Culture, and Religion series offers informed and responsible analyses of the state of the American family from a religious perspective and provides practical assistance for the family's…

The Sting of Death
“Although we no longer live in a world constructed around imagery of heaven, purgatory, and hell, a look at past attempts to comprehend the ‘great riddle’ of death, as Augustine remarked, might help us. Listening first-hand to the words of Augustine, Calvin, or Kierkegaard vividly illustrates the tenor of the changes that have occurred over the sweep of more than nineteen centuries—but also the constancy of human experience beneath the changes. .…

Thinking theologically about modern medicine
Produce or Perish
TECHNICAL DEBATES ABOUT new reproductive technologies (NRTs) capture daily headlines. Less prominent is what theologians think. Many leave these disputes to the scientists and medical ethicists with subspecialties in the finer mechanics of artificial reproduction. Although the specialization of the professions and the withdrawal of theologians to narrower and narrower spheres of discussion yields an increased depth of knowledge, it is a mistake. …
