Practical Theology as a Snippet Discipline of "Verbing and Displaying the Praxis of God"
This article aims to develop a diagrammatic depiction of how the different sections or ecclesial snippets¹ (operational functions) could be portrayed in an integral approach to theory formation in practical theological thinking. It explores the notion of the "praxis of God" as a kind of cohesive factor in a practical teleology, framed by the Christian spiritual paradigm of the passio Dei. It is proposed that an "operative ecclesiology" should contribute to a kind of "spiritual humanism", focusing on what one can call the "beautification" of life; practical theology as fides quaerens beatitudinem.
