Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Much of the conversation and concern of churches and of Christian individuals is centred around Christian discernment or knowing God's leading in decision-making. The language we use around these moments is fluid, and often feels inadequate - ask someone how they 'know' what God might be saying in a given situation and they may well reach for the phrase 'I just know'. In "How do you know it's God?", Lynn McChlery draws on ethnographic research amongst those in different kinds of 'discernment' processes, along with theological, spiritural and psychological insights to try and understand this phenomenon of 'insight' - or 'just knowing'.</p><p><br></p><p>Challenging the perception that such intuition needs to be marginalised and removed from discernment conversations, McChlery suggests that instead intuition can and should be intentionally matured both individually and in communities; and that it can be verified, articulated and recorded in forms appropriate to its own mode of insight. It is a vital new contribution to the scholarship for all practical theologians researching ecclesiology, vocation, group dynamics in churches, and communal decision-making processes of any kind.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Truly well-observed, this rare study lifts the veil on the subtle workings of vocational discernment in the church. 'Who would you trust with your spiritual life?' Paying careful attention to each aspect - ecclesial and personal, evidential and intuitive, professional and spiritual - McChlery develops a finely textured portrait of a uniquely searching process. The application of Ignatian wisdom to this delicate decision-making responsibility brings real depth and authority to her research. Her book will be of real service to all involved in vocational assessment in the church." -- Margaret Whipp. </p><br>
