Wisdom to Act

Focusing on practical theology, this book argues for its integration into theological education to prepare ministry leaders for social transformation. It emphasizes the church's role in promoting social justice and advocates for a curriculum that combines academic, institutional, and social aspects of education. Through a qualitative case study of three innovative projects in New Zealand, Anglican priest Susan Adams shares her thirty years of experience, presenting a model of 'integrative practical theology' aimed at fostering new practice paradigms in ministry.
