The Vincentian Millennium Partnership site provides practical ways to be a “professor” (doer) of theology in the marketplace.They offer courses designed to enable Clergy and others, of any faith or none, already working among deprived families and individuals to support them as a “McKenzie Friend” when they are facing court appearances for debt. There is a legal right to a friend in court won by a man called McKenzie.
I was fascinated by the title of one of the lectures… The Practice of Friendship – Professor of Theology in Public Life
A visit to their site will most likely inspire imitators of the many fine ideas presented there.
