Christian Practical Wisdom: What It Is, Why It Matters - Paperback
by Dorothy C. Bass (Author), Kathleen A. Cahalan (Author), Bonnie J. Miller-McLemore (Author)
In this richly collaborative work, five distinguished scholars examine the oft-neglected embodied practical wisdom that is essential for true theological understanding and faithful Christian living. After first showing what Christian practical wisdom is and does in several real-life situations, the authors tell why such practical wisdom matters and how it operates, exploring reasons behind its decline in both the academy and the church and setting forth constructive cases for its renewal.
