of the incredible suffering and degradation of three years at Auschwitz

THE
BLACKWELL READER IN PASTORAL AND PRACTICAL THEOLOGY
James
Woodward & Stephen Pattison (Ed)
Blackwell/Dec
99. ISBN 0-631-20745-7.
The
editors of this rich collection of essays take pains to differentiate
"pastoral" or "practical" theology from the more academic, arcane
variety. What it means, they say, is finding ways to link religious
teaching to everyday practice, to move from being a student of the
Gospels to teaching, living and working guided by its teachings.
THE
STATURE OF WAITING
W.H.
Vanstone
DLT/Nov
82. ISBN 0-232-51573-5.
Gives
a very positive way of understanding suffering, ill-health and old
age through an examination of the passion narratives. Well worth
reading.
