Using the Evocative Phenomenological Method in the Godly Play Room to Discover Insights into How Children Are a Means of Grace
Religious Education, v116 n3 p266-277 2021
As an effective tool used within the evocative method of phenomenological inquiry, this article details the use of the written anecdotes of Godly Play storytellers in Australia to understand children as a means of grace. The phenomenological framework out of which the evocative method emanates is described, and four examples from the author's recent research with Godly Play storytellers using written anecdotes to describe occasions on which children may have been communicating grace, as well as a short analysis of what was revealed through a reflection on these anecdotes, is presented.
