Spirituality in Ministerial Formation: The Dynamic of Prayer in Learning

Spirituality in Ministerial Formation traces the origin and evolution of the formation model of training and identifies important differences this theological paradigm makes to present practice. Uncovering significant and surprising functions for prayer in the learning process through first-hand accounts by ordained clergy and tutors, this volume identifies the practical implications of this research and offers creative ideas for renewing our understanding of how prayer works in the teaching of spirituality. Of interest to a wide group of theological educators and students, this is essential reading for those interested in a clearer articulation of spirituality in education and our present culture and context.
