Using the Bible in Practical Theology : Historical and Contemporary Perspectives, Paperback / softback Book

Using the Bible in Practical Theology : Historical and Contemporary Perspectives Paperback / softback

Part of the Explorations in Practical, Pastoral and Empirical Theology series

Paperback / softback

Description

Exploring how the Bible may be appropriately used in practical and public theology, this book looks at types of modern practical theology with specific emphasis on the use of the Bible.

Bennett juxtaposes the diversity of modern practical theology with the work of leading nineteenth-century public 'theologian', John Ruskin, and then assesses the contribution of this analysis to some modern issues of public importance in which the Bible is used.

The final chapter offers a framework for a biblically informed critical practical theology which draws on the writer's experience and invites the readers to engage their own.
