Every church congregation encounters challenging situations, some the same the world over, and others specific to each church. Richard Osmer here seeks to teach congregational leaders -- including, but not limited to, clergy -- the requisite knowledge and skills to meet such situations with sensitivity and creativity.

Osmer develops a framework for practical theological interpretation in congregations by focusing on four key questions: What is going on in a given context? Why is this going on? What ought to be going on? and How might the leader shape the context to better embody Christian witness and mission?

The book is unique in its attention to interdisciplinary issues and the ways that theological reflection is grounded in the spirituality of leaders. Useful, accessible, and lively -- with lots of specific examples and case studies -- Osmer's Practical Theology effectively equips congregational leaders to guide their communities with theological integrity.

Classic and functional
Color: Stainless Mesh/ Blue Dial
High quality and affordable watch. Love the mesh band. It’s a classic, functional everyday look. Easy to adjust, and never runs out of power. Perfect for men who have smaller wrists. Bought for my husbands birthday, and he loves it.

Everything as expected
Color: Stainless Mesh/ Blue Dial
It's a nice watch added to the collection, looks really good on hand, the metallic mesh band is very elegant and also customizable, so it will fit perfectly on your hand. It seems that it had a bit of charge out of the box, but I'll leave it under a direct (under 20cm distance) LED desk lamp to recharge overnight, I'll also leave them under sunlight around the windows whenever possible (at least for the first week or so), it's stated in the online manual that it will need ~45 hours to fully charge on a cloudy day under the sunlight. By the way, it would've been nice to have the manual in the box, but at least it's easy to find the (generic) manual in their website. The fluorescence of the hands and hour dots are really bright and mine had nice bluish color. Of the features, the chronograph works perfectly as expected, the manual also states to set the time 5 minutes ahead of the real time then slowly rewind back to the current time whenever setting the time, for the time keeping to be more accurate because of some gear movements inside. To be honest, it would be great to see Citizen use scratch resistant sapphire instead of some mineral as the face protective layer, as they do for other high-end models, the technology is not new and I think it wouldn't make it that much more expensive, I hope this one will be resistant enough🤞🏻 Overall, this is the first day I received the watch, I'm quite happy with my purchase, it's nice knowing you won't need to replace the battery anytime soon 😛
