Commentary on previous chapters and questions for critical thought. Amponsah closes this section with a commentary on some of the tensions between spirituality and religion in social work identified in the theory and praxis chapters. Using his own experience and spirituality-imbued practice, he argues that it is necessary for social work to live with these tensions and to recognize the importance of spirituality for transformative practice.
