Description

Practical Theology and Qualitative Research offers a comprehensive exploration of how to apply theological learning in practical situations. The authors examine the methodologies of social sciences and their potential for enabling theological reflection, highlighting the significance of both qualitative and quantitative methods in this context. The book provides an in-depth look at the process of developing and carrying out a research project, using real-life examples as case studies. Previous case studies cover topics such as spirituality, church attendance, evidence-based medicine, chaplaincy, and parish ministry. This second edition includes updated case studies and bibliographies, as well as a new chapter. By examining both qualitative and quantitative methods, this book provides valuable insights for those working in practical theology or seeking to apply theological learning in their own practice.
