Exploring how the Bible may be appropriately used in public theology, this book looks at types of modern practical theology with specific emphasis on the use of the Bible. Drawing on the lessons learned through the study of Ruskin, and the case study of the Kairos Palestine Document, this book invites readers to examine the nature and relevance of biblical engagement, and to apply and test what has been learned.
