Making Faith-Sense: Theological Reflection in Everyday Life
Select Format
Select Condition 
Book Overview
Making faith-sense is a new term for an ancient practice. It is what the early Christians called mystical or wisdom theology: understanding life in the light of God's participation recorded in the Gospels, recognizing the signs of God's presence in everyday events and shaping one's life accordingly. In Making Faith-Sense, Robert Kinast shows all who seek to unify their life experience around their belief in God how to follow that ancient practice. Drawing upon the award-winning process he has used with students for the ministry, Father Kinast explains how to make sense of family, work, and cultural experience from the perspective of Christian faith. Each chapter contains numerous real-life examples and practical guidelines that can be used privately or with a group.

This slim volume is THE most accessible book on theological reflection that I have read. While I loved his earlier book, Let Ministry Teach, my students found it rather dense and confusing. This book, based on the same process-theology approach, is much more accessible to students and layfolks. It is very clear in articulating the process by which one connects life with faith. Would be an excellent resource for pre-ministerial students or thoughtful laypersons.I've read Whiteheads, Patton, deBeer and Killen and many others on this topic and Robert Kinast most clearly and understandably gets at a kind of reflection that is, at root, faith-based and theological.
