Based on extensive literary and field research involving surveys, classroom observations, and interviews with faculty, students, and administrators in Roman Catholic, mainline and evangelical Protestant, and Reform and Conservative Jewish seminaries, Educating Clergy explores the influence of their historic traditions and academic settings in contemporary classroom and communal pedagogies. The book describes elements in classroom pedagogies shared across these religious traditions that distinctively integrate the cognitive, practical, and normative apprenticeships to be found in all forms of professional education.

Review
""This will be a useful reference volume for leaders in seminary education, and will provide interesting topics for conversation in many faculty contexts." (Teaching Theology & Religion, 10/03/2007)
"This is an important book." (Congregations, Summer 2006)
Review
"This is a timely moment to introduce Educating Clergy. It has never been more evident that public as well as private life in America is powerfully shaped by traditions of faith commitments and religious observance. This study was born out of the conviction that the organized clergy plays a central, though unofficial, role in many aspects of national life. Through their pastoral and teaching functions, clergy of all religious traditions share characteristic and important tasks. They help individuals and communities interpret and respond to the events of their individual and family lives. But clergy also shape the ways individuals and groups make sense of the larger events of our common life. This study provides a searching examination of how religious leadership by pastors, priests, and rabbis is prepared and trained for those challenging times."
