| Summary: | K. H. Reich's (this issue) dynamic model of the person-God relationship maps out important pathways of religious development, which may be fruitfully elaborated by the incorporation of narrative processes and relational schemas. Because the narratives and schemas available to any individual for the interpretation of religious experience will be shaped substantially by that individual's culture, gender, and faith community, the model can be strengthened by a more pervasive representation of their influence and of the role played by collective thinking in general. With the incorporation of these perspectives, Reich's model offers researchers a useful heuristic tool for investigating which aspects of religious experience are shared and which differ by gender, faith, and culture. |
