MIN 505 - Foundations in Pastoral Care


This course investigates the resources and practices of pastoral care based on theological understandings of God and human experience in the context of local faith communities. Students develop an approach to pastoral care that integrates insights from scripture, theology, and personal experience in relationship to the multiplicity of contexts in which ministry occurs. Basic skills in case analysis, pastoral conversation, and self-awareness are developed to enhance the ability to offer care, to lead communities of care, and to be attentive to continuing self-care throughout one’s professional life.

3 Credits.
