[Diana Hayes · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good and very useful introduction to practical theology. Chapter 7 is misleading as well as disappointing however as it istitled Feminist and Womanist PT but is really only about feminist practical theology and addresses womanist PT only glancingly.

Required textbook for masters in theology class.
