The aim of Sit on Our Hands, or Stand on Our Feet? is not to present a theology that explains disasters. In fact there is no such theology. Nor is this work primarily for those who are responded to; it is not part of the theological ‘grab bag’ that Christian responders carry with them to use for the benefit of casualties. It is more a part of the Christian’s engaged practical theological apprenticeship prior to, and during, a response. This book represents the role of the practical theologian, who empowers the church community’s legitimation and contribution in disaster response, and who encourages individual Christians–whose calling into particularly relevant professions, whose natural skills and/or professional training, could find them placed in a major incident responding status (paid or voluntary)–doing their work as unto the Lord. It is a serious must-read for any Christians who have hearts heavy with compassion but who are not sure what to do or why when disaster strikes.
