“…In this context Francis and Payne (2002) explored clergy preferences for different ministry styles as assessed by the PIMS. Francis and Robbins (2008) explored clergy preferences for different ways of praying through the Prayer Preference Index. Then Tilley et al (2011) The second body of knowledge concerns practical ways in which psychological type theory may provide a theoretical framework through which creative experimental learning may be designed to enable curates and training incumbents to explore similarities and differences in their approaches to conceptualising and implementing Christian vocation and ministry.…”

“…Rather, it behoves us to be more explicit about what people are doing when they pray (Brümmer, 2008), and more sophisticated in our ability to identify different kinds of prayer. For example, it has proved possible to correlate personality with different kinds of prayer (Francis et al, 2008), which might in turn suggest ways in which research might give more attention to such relationships with mental disorder. Or, again, images of God (Francis et al, 2001;MacKenna, 2002) -rather than simply belief in (any kind of) God -might prove more discriminatory of positive and negative influences upon mental health.…”
