Lived Theology for the Whole of Life

This book is an invitation to envision an experiential theology that interconnects the personal, the interpersonal, the communal, the societal, and the creational, held together by a God who is not removed from creation but who is infused in the very life of all beings and things of the created world. Since God has created and continues to create life that is good, this prompts us to apply a consistently for-life ethic to the issues which confront them in the present day. Our for-life faith commitments include our personal challenges with alienation, fear, and forgiveness; how we can live a consistently for-life ethic in the face of social challenges such as poverty, abortion, violence, racism, and the “othering” of those who are “different;” the climate crisis; and the dangers posed today by imperialism, war, and contemporary forms of colonialism. This attempt to weave together a for-life ethic for the whole of life is especially influenced by non-Western and indigenous theologies, in particular the relational theology that has emerged from Pacific Islander theologians.

Drinking from the Same Well

Drinking from the Same Well is designed for those who seek a praxis-oriented theological grounding in the exploration of cross-cultural perspectives in the field of pastoral care and counseling. It traverses the broad terrain of cultural analysis and also explores in depth a number of discrete cross-cultural issues in pastoral counseling, related to communication, conflict, empathy, family dynamics, suffering, and healing. Cultural analysis and theological reflection are situated alongside numerous case studies of persons and situations that enflesh the concepts being discussed, and readers are invited to engage personally with the material through a variety of focus questions and reflective exercises. This book can serve as a helpful textbook for seminarians and a useful guide for pastors and priests, church study groups, multicultural parishes, and anyone engaged in helping ministries with persons from other cultures. The goal is to develop culturally competent pastoral caregivers by providing a comprehensive and practical overview of the generative themes and challenges in cross-cultural pastoral care.

The Bloomsbury Guide to Pastoral Care provides a framework for reflection on pastoral care practice and identifies frontier learning from the new and challenging practical contexts which are important in pastoral care research today. In this collection of essays from leading practitioner-scholars, Bernadette Flanagan and Sharon Thornton set out core principles underpinning professional identity and the practice of pastoral care in rapidly changing social settings. Such pastoral challenges as, developing compassionate and effective companioning to those who have suffered trauma, torture, catastrophic events, social disintegration, the moral wounds of war and cultural dislocation are treated with insight and deep care. The new frontiers of pastoral care in more familiar circumstances such as family, health settings where patients facing life-challenging medical events and multi-cultural communities are also explored. With contributions from Kevin Egan, Michael O'Sullivan SJ, Rita Nakashima Brock and Julia Prinz VDMF, The Bloomsbury Guide to Pastoral Care is an essential reference for the theory and practice of pastoral care.
