Service and Spirit: Discipleship and Spiritual Training in Wiccan Temples - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Wagar wrote this book to explore some issues in practical theology around discipleship (modeling oneself on one’s deities) and religiously based service of the community (both the narrow religious community and all of humanity) in Wiccan temple groups. Issues explored include the social construction and personal developments involved in connecting with goddesses and gods, personal evolution and transformation resulting from this engagement, mystical insights and the rituals which bring them down to Earth and into communities of faith, the call to spiritual connection and service, and religious education to assist people to make these connections real in both their individual lives and their temples.
Practical theology is that approach to theology that concerns itself with the divine in the world – in our lives, in our temples, and in our other institutions. It principally concerns itself with the “how” questions rather than “who, what, when, where, and why”.
