Early Thoughts on Practical Theology

I often wonder what the role of practical theology is, when it comes to making a constructive/systematic theology.

One answer that I like is that "theology of practices" can replace "theology of mission"...because I refuse to have a missiology in my systematic/constructive.

However, I feel like it does injustice to the importance of practices to put them all into one category. For that reason, I am hoping to eventually read "Pentecostal Theology: A Theology of Encounter" by Keith Warrington. The back cover claims that Warrington looks at the importance of the practice & practicality in Pentecostal theology.

Ultimately, I'm hoping to find a consistent and significant way to include practical theology in every branch of my systematic/constructive. But I'm still at the very early stages of figuring out how/if that's possible to do.
