Book Synopsis Where Are We? Pastoral Environments and Care for Migrants by : Daniel S. Schipani
Download or read book Where Are We? Pastoral Environments and Care for Migrants written by Daniel S. Schipani and published by . This book was released on 2017-09 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is published by the Society for Intercultural Pastoral Care & Counseling (SIPCC), Dusseldorf, Germany. It addresses key questions such as, what makes for competent pastoral care for, and with migrants?; how does pastoral care relate to social action for, and with migrants'. These are urgent questions in times when the flows of migration seem to grow even faster than the manifold controversies on migration. The issues are numerous, as they mirror the great diversity of causes, contexts, conflicts, political constellations, and attempts at conviviality. All those diverse factors shape the environments in which pastoral care and social action are undertaken and they condition the ways in which care and action can in turn shape the environments in which interactions between migrants and non-migrants take place. The collection of perspectives in this volume are the fruit of a seminar of the SIPCC in Gent, Belgium, in September of 2016, ¿Care and Counseling as Social Action. Inter-religious Cooperation in Urban Migration Contexts.¿ The participants represented many nationalities from five continents. They came as pastors, organizers, supervisors, teachers, religious leaders and academic researchers. They were Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist and Humanist. They reflected upon their contexts and in many cases on their own work. That means that the reflections offered in this text are born out of engagement with migrants, and/or experiences as migrants. Some provide stories. Some propose pastoral approaches. Some present research. They are made available in this volume in order to contribute to discussions on cultural and social perspectives on migrants and migration, and also to foster good pastoral and social care for and with migrants. The book has four main sections: Surveying the Landscapes of migration; Cultivating care for migrants; and Mediating spaces: Reflections on pastoral care with migrants; and a A selected and annotated bibliography.

Book Synopsis Spiritual Care in our Multifaith World by : Daniel S. Schipani
Download or read book Spiritual Care in our Multifaith World written by Daniel S. Schipani and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-07-16 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the helping professions, and as a compassionate response to human suffering, spiritual care is a special process of companioning. Furthermore, all forms of spiritual care always consist in connecting diverse wisdom traditions with care receivers’ spiritual resources, longings, and struggles in socio-cultural and contextually pertinent ways. This book thoroughly explicates such understanding with interdisciplinary lenses. Its main purpose is to offer a comprehensive response to the new challenges and opportunities for excellent care presented by increasing cultural and religious-spiritual pluralization. Practical guidelines and case studies are connected with models of spirituality, spiritual toxicity and injury, communication strategies for engaging difference, patterns of caregiving work, and profiles of professional competence. In addition to offering an overarching orientation to the field, the contents of this book invite further reflection, dialogue, and collaboration among clinical pastoral education and psychospiritual therapy students and supervisors; chaplains, pastors and other religious caregivers; counselors; psychotherapists; and others interested in spiritual care in our multifaith world. It thus reflects the shared hope and, indeed, the expectation that spiritual care theory and practice across traditions and disciplines will continue to be enhanced in the days ahead.
Book Synopsis Compassionate Intercultural Care Practices for Coping with Grief by : James Japheth Sudarshan Harrichand
Download or read book Compassionate Intercultural Care Practices for Coping with Grief written by James Japheth Sudarshan Harrichand and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-31 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As humans, we all express our grief differently. Acknowledging this truth, Dr. James Harrichand examines Old Testament accounts of grief and mourning alongside the experiences of marginalized Guyanese and Vietnamese immigrant communities in Canada. He explores both biblical and pastoral theology through an anthropological lens, bridging the horizons of Scripture and culture in a hermeneutically and pastorally sensitive manner. Dr. Harrichand’s focus on prosaic prayers in the Old Testament fills a significant gap in the scholarship, but this book is also significant for its immense practicality, sensitizing readers to grief’s varied expressions and equipping culturally intelligent pastoral caregivers. He presents five compassionate intercultural care practices for coping with grief, grounding each in the living hope of the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, the one who bore our griefs and carries our sorrows.

Book Synopsis Celebrating the Past, Present and Future of British and Irish Practical Theology by : Andrew P. Rogers
Download or read book Celebrating the Past, Present and Future of British and Irish Practical Theology written by Andrew P. Rogers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-13 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical theology has become a well-established academic discipline in Britain and Ireland over the past half century, evidenced in its chairs, journals, books, conferences, and contribution to transformed practices. The British and Irish Association for Practical Theology (BIAPT) and its journal, Practical Theology, has had a significant role to play in the story of the discipline. This volume is a celebration of practical theology in Britain and Ireland in all its inventiveness and variety on the occasion of BIAPT’s twenty-fifth birthday. It offers an account of its roots in its emergence from the Scottish Pastoral Association in the 1960s, its trajectories established in the journal Contact/Practical Theology and how human experience has been a constant companion on the journey. The book considers a range of methodologies including engagement with popular culture, public theology, the arts, and the importance of conversation. It explores new shoots in the discipline that consider how sexuality, ethnicity, and different religious traditions may be addressed within practical theology. It concludes by asking how it may be fruitful in the future, by reflecting on the challenges ahead, not least the ubiquity of ignorance. This is a landmark text in the unfolding of British and Irish practical theology in all its glorious distinctiveness, which promises to be a major contribution to international debate in the discipline. The chapters in this book were first published in Practical Theology.

It offers a road map for using a step-by-step narrative, relational, embodied approach to spiritual care that respects the unique ways people live out their values and beliefs, especially in coping with stress, loss, and violence.

In the process of working together, perceptions of each other can transform.
Book Synopsis Inter Related Stories by : Mechteld Jansen
Download or read book Inter Related Stories written by Mechteld Jansen and published by Lit Verlag. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study seeks to clarify the inter in the word 'intercultural', especially when it comes to the interaction of people from different cultural backgrounds coming together in a pastoral situation. As critical reflection on intercultural pastoral care, intercultural pastoral theology is relevant for immigrant congregations as well as for non-immigrants' churches and parishes that are increasingly being confronted with questions of intercultural relationships in public and private life. The study starts with the intimation of God's presence in the inter-space of awe and responsibility that occur between people truly sharing their life stories. Dr. Mechteld Jansen is professor of missiology at the Protestant Theological University at Utrecht, the Netherlands, and until 2010 she was a researcher in the field of intercultural pastoral theology at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
