Publisher's Synopsis
What strategies can pastoral care use to deal with specific crisis situations? On the basis of reflective pastoral care situations, Thomas Wild offers models of thought and interpretations that expand horizons of understanding and behavioral options. Pastoral care also enjoys social prestige and recognition in secular contexts. At the same time, it shows that she, too, has to develop and prove herself professionally if she wants to survive in an interdisciplinary environment. The book is an invitation to deal with one's own ways of thinking and pastoral practice in order to develop new and expanded strategies and to deal with specific crisis situations. At the same time, it offers all interested readers stimulating insights into modern and professional pastoral work.
