\"Founder<\/p>\n

A very handy resource for any estate church leader or practitioner is Laurie Green’s blog on how to do<\/em> theology. The website is lauriegreen.org.<\/a><\/p>\n

This way of reflecting theologically on situations starts not with books but with actual experience. It is called the Pastoral Cycle. Below is his diagram outlining the process.<\/p>\n

\"Theological<\/p>\n

Laurie gives a very clear introduction into what this process means in his short video on https:\/\/www.lauriegreen.org\/theology-1\/contextual%20theology.html<\/a><\/p>\n

He has written a book on this called ‘Lets Do<\/em> Theology’. Theology is there for all of us to do, not just for academics. God is calling poor people especially to have a go at doing theology because we may not be rich but we have a rich amount of experience to reflect upon and we still have our faith, just like Jesus did when he became incarnate and lived for 30 years before he started preaching.<\/p>\n

As you will be well aware coming from an estate does not preclude anyone from being academic.  For those of you who wish to go deeper Laurie provides links to plenty of additional papers to contextual theology on https:\/\/www.lauriegreen.org\/theology-1\/index.html<\/a><\/p>\n

He also provides links to his summaries of theology books on areas of doctrine, mission, the Bible, the church and theological reflection, especially in the context of ministry on the estates https:\/\/www.lauriegreen.org\/books\/laurie%27s%20library.html <\/a><\/p>\n

There are some very useful books on this list but most importantly of all, all of us from estates can all do theology, starting with an open heart and our experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
