The author identifies three different types of change and shows how faith must both sustain us in the midst of personal and social change and undergo the process of change itself. Faithful Change extends the discussion of the nature and dynamics of faith begun in the author's earlier groundbreaking work, Stages of Faith. Fowler's study is notable for his analysis of shame and its function in faith development.

Faithful change is a good response to postmodernism.,
By
This review is from: Faithful Change: The Personal and Public Challenges of Postmodern Life (Hardcover)
Faithful change is a well reasoned application of faith development theory to the confusing and often disconcerting area of postmodernity. Faith is seen to be the basis of meaning for the human person. This faith is seen to form a method for understanding and responding to the intellectual, political, economic, social, and practical dimensions of life. This is a must read for people deeply concerned with living faithfully in the postmodern era.
