Encountering God (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781922589309)

How can churches contribute to bringing about healing in our troubled world?

Has Christianity been a force for good in the world? Is it still today?

At the 2020 conference of the Association of Practical Theology in Oceania (APTO), these

were the serious questions raised and debated, reflecting the ministry of healing that is at

the heart of the church's existence.

Fourteen papers presented at the Conference are contained in this book. They represent

the range of presentations made at the Conference, emphasising the nature of practical

theology whose purpose is to uncover the causes of woundedness in the church and to

suggest ways towards resolution, forgiveness and, above all, truth.
