Synopsis

The subject of this book is the formulation of Doctor of Ministry projects by ministers engaged in the practice of ministry. It offers a critique of some of the more traditional approaches to research and their often inappropriate usage in Doctor of Ministry projects. It offers a critique of some of the more traditional approaches to research and their often inappropriate usage in Doctor of Ministry projects. It argues that a case study approach to the formulation of D.Min. projects not only makes central those attitudes and skills normally underlying the practice of ministry, but that the appropriate blending of tools within such an approach is on the cutting edge of contemporary understandings regarding both research and practical theology.
