About this product

Product Information

Most people focus on pastoral ministry--the activities, programs, and outreach connected with the life of the church--when considering the work of a pastor. But one of the most important parts of a minister's job is pastoral care--activities such as compassion, healing, sustaining, guiding, and reconciling people to one ather and to God. People today earnestly seek a minister who kws their names and cares about their hurts.Foundations of Pastoral Care introduces both clergy and laity to the ministry skills and personal qualities needed to provide effective care for people inside and outside the church. With thorough examination, Professor Bruce Petersen traces the historical development of soul care from the primitive church and on through the centuries to the church of today. In unit one, he introduces the place of pastoral care in the local church. He emphasizes the unique responsibility of church leaders and pastors to provide spiritual guidance while caring for the physical and emotional needs of their people. In unit two, he examines the pastoral care roles clergy are asked to fill--shepherd, counselor, collaborator, and spiritual leader. In unit three, he addresses the need for a pastoral presence in the life of the church, and in unit four, he concludes with a discussion about the pastor's personal life and the importance of personal spiritual formation.Foundations of Pastoral Care provides the fundamental elements pastors and church leaders need to care for people in meaningful, personal ways with the love, compassion, and grace Christ showed during His ministry on earth.

Pastor as Super-Shepherd
What a great balance to the pastor as CEO mindset that seems to be taking over with the growth of mega-churches. This is not a quick read; however each chapter deals thoroughly with the topic for the chapter. The real-life scenarios that begin each chapter are excellent in focusing the reader on the issues to be discussed and giving a real-life context for the teaching. This isn't just theoretical; it's a practical how-to over many aspects of the shepherding side of pastoring. Though very practical, it also is intellectually challenging and scripturally sound. Every pastor that wants to help his/her congregation as a servant-leader would benefit from this book.
