Research Overview

The Aberdeen Approach to Theological Ethics and Practical Theology

Theological Ethics and Practical Theology in Aberdeen have developed a unique perspective which brings together practical theology and combines it creatively with moral theology in a way that is academically rigorous and practically transformative. Our task is to think through faith not as “belief” but as lived. Thus the primary reference of our theologizing is the lived life in all its contemporary forms. We understand our discipline to begin and end with inquiries focused on practices.

My own central interests are in moral and practical theology, by which I mean that I find theology most interesting when it is done in relation to the concrete questions of daily life. Why moral and practical theology? Since these disciplines are rarely understood the same way by two practitioners, let me explain my approach. (Aberdeen is a rare exception to the problem of practitioners having incommensurate approaches!) The "and" is important as I understand the terms to modify and situate one another. In an English-speaking context, practical theology has acquired an orientation toward the hermeneutics of contemporary culture. This orientation rightly warns moral theology against drifting to a level of abstraction that makes it appear irrelevant for the moral decisions of daily life. At the same time, moral theology serves practical theology by insisting that interpretation is not endless, but is properly circumscribed by doctrinal and confessional frameworks. My engagements with Christian doctrine and cultural hermeneutics are tied together by a third interest in the role scripture plays in God's work of generating a people with a distinctive ethos. I am constantly asking how the reading of scripture is influenced by, and influences, our reading of culture.

In sum, I am engaged in clarifying how the tradition of Christian faith and moral thinking reshapes Christian understandings of practical and moral questions. I am asking questions that lie on roughly three levels.

1) Fundamental questions in moral and practical theology.

  • the sources of the Christian ethos; how it is generated and develops
  • the doctrinal location of practical theology and Christian ethics
  • architectonic issues in the organization of the content of Christian ethics

I see such questions as aspects of the theological work of inquiry into how the work of the Holy Spirit renews human society and all of creation.

2) Questions about the relation of the Bible and Christian ethics.

  • how the hermeneutics of the Bible, culture and the self are intertwined
  • how the Bible might function as a context of discovering the self-in-Christ, creation, and in Christian community
  • what resources are available in the exegetical tradition for meeting these sorts of inquiries
  • how do theological exegesis and moral/practical theology interrelate

3) Concrete studies which seek to discover the meaning of faith in practical life.

  • I am convinced that Christian ethics and practical theology too rarely venture beyond methodological considerations. If the meaning of the Christian confession is discovered in the course of trying to live it in practical contexts, then the study of practical questions is not an ancillary project of applying Christian knowledge, but the critical furnace in which it is continually reborn. Christians need to learn to theologically name cultural events we commonly think of in secular terms. For these reasons I am interested in further study on a wide range of issues, the following being a few examples. Students interested in other practical issues should not hesitate to contact me.
  • interactions between cultures and traditions: emigration and population displacement, globalisation, outsourcing, imperialism/crusade
  • environmental questions: energy policy, waste management policies and practices, agricultural practices
  • violence at the margins: proliferation of weapons, terrorism, insurgency, prison policy, linguistic violence
  • medicine, humanity and inhumanity: mental and physical disability, practices in which the "human" is established and denied, National Health policy
  • mass communication: media, publicity, advertisement, propaganda, entertainment culture
