Living Spiritual Praxis: Foundations for Spiritual Formation Program Development

Christian ministers working in congregations and with nonprofits seek to discern what it is that God has been doing and where it is that the Spirit might be leading them. In this book the author looks to address the lack of resources on the work and dynamics of Christian spiritual formation that actually develop a specific process for spiritual formation programs. The author strives to provide a guide for spiritual formation by using the praxis-oriented fields of action research and practical theology. He explores a process for understanding the nature and dynamics of a situation discerning specific formative interventions assessing various approaches and continually assessing and modifying these understandings and approaches.
