Bonnie J. Miller-McLemore, Vanderbilt University This path-breaking book traces theology as embodied in the midst of congregational life. Among its many contributions is its deep appreciation for practical theology, its wise use of ethnography and place theory, and its honest analysis of the slippage between verbal proclamation and bodily habits. Affective visceral responses of desire and fear, as Mary McClintock Fulkerson powerfully reminds us, shape our theologies more than we realize or intend.
C.L. Nash, The Edinburgh Review of Theology and Religion Places of Redemption uses Good Samaritian Church to help readers better understand identity formation while revealing the angst many people still have regarding race and disability... helpful for those using practical theology in pursuit of social justice through the Gospel.
J.M. Hull Theology ...An outstanding contribution both to congregational studies and to anthropological research into religion.
Martyn Percy, Church Times This is a profound contribution to the field of practical theology, with a rich and nuanced discussion of congregational studies and contemporary ecclesiology. Behind the descriptive passages, readers will find depth and density. The reflections on post-modern place theory are refreshing and illuminating, calling into question the identity of the local church...It deserves to be widely read and attentively studied.
Sue Yore, International Journal of Public Theology. A breath of fresh air, which goes a long way towards providing a real alternative to cerebral or applied theologies that often ignore practices of the faithful in the interests of articulating belief.
