"Faculties in theological education who have taken interest in recent books on clergy formation in the U.S. will benefit from asking the core questions developed on the educational development competency map. It is clear that the field of faculty development in theological education in the U.S. would benefit from broader international comparisons, particularly as religion flourishes across the globe."
