Description
Summary:The author defines pastoral theology as “the study of the micro-world of intrapsychic and interpersonal interactions with the tools of theology and the social sciences for the purpose of support and healing. In a typical class or supervisory session, we analyze the words, voice inflection, pace, and gestures of an intimate conversation between two people, looking for clues to the deep structure of personality and intimate relationships. The hope of such study is that we will see the revelation of Godís love and power in action to validate and challenge the theological traditions that give us eyes to see and invite us to see more clearly.”1
