Book Description
Anton T. Boisen (1876-1965). Studying Empirically the Complex Entanglements of Actual Life" {a collection of 6 essays, from 1977, 2005, 2010, 2011, 2013, & 2015}Anton Theophilus Boisen (1876-1965) "invented" - in 1925 - "clinical pastoral chaplaincy" - the notion of a professional chaplaincy - initially for hospitals, prisons, the military, and other institutions - but soon also for community parish settings. These specialized chaplains minister to all who are suffering, bewildered, or vulnerable - providing clinical pastoral care, counseling, or psychotherapy, as appropriate.Bosien also pioneered an engaged "empirical theology" that could become the basis for invigorating new generations of ministers and pastors - while benefiting the patients and parishioners being studied.Boisen knew he was leading a revolution: "What is involved is thoroughgoing shift of attention and a new method of attack and, then, in the end, a new authority [for the clergy], grounded not in tradition but in experience". This volume includes a focused consideration of how Boisen's work on the psychology of religion easily bore expansion into the sociology of religion - as well of how his appreciation of the uplifts and downfalls of individuals encouraged insight about those of societies. The whole notion of maintaining a critical stance toward the events and leaders of our world is emphasized.The author, Robert Charles Powell, earned his MD and PhD (history) degrees at Duke University, Durham, North Carolina. He has been working with the clinical pastoral chaplaincy movement and American psychosomatic movement for over 50 years.

Book Description
Anton T. Boisen (1876-1965). Cooperative Inquiry: Amid the Complex Entanglements of Actual Life [2nd ed]. {a collection of 10 essays, from 1975, 1999, 2001, 2011, 2011, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2013, & 2017}; Anton Theophilus Boisen (1876-1965) "invented" - in 1925 - "clinical pastoral chaplaincy" - the notion of a professional chaplaincy - initially for hospitals, prisons, the military, and other institutions - but soon also for community parish settings. These specialized chaplains minister to all who are suffering, bewildered, or vulnerable - providing clinical pastoral care, counseling, or psychotherapy, as appropriate. Boisen also pioneered a therapeutic approach of "cooperative inquiry" - a kind of collaborative "research" by the patient and the therapist - working "side-by-side" - toward understanding an unusual experience. "Cooperative Inquiry in Religion" (1945) was one of the most thoughtful of Boisen's many, many articles in the fields of psychology, sociology, and theology. He emphasized that "Religious experience can and should be studied before it has gathered dust on library shelves" - and that "the living human documents" - sometimes being patients - "are the primary sources for the understanding of human nature". This volume includes a classic review of Boisen's intended program of actions (delivered on the 50th anniversary of clinical pastoral chaplaincy) - plus an analytic sequel delivered not quite 25 years later. The whole notion of maintaining a critical stance within chaplaincy - toward improving it - is emphasized - within an atmosphere of "tolerance and encouragement".

The Wounded Healer
Author: Henri J. M. Nouwen
Publisher: Image
ISBN: 0385148038
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
A radically fresh interpretation of how we can best serve others from the bestselling author of The Return of the Prodigal Son, hailed as “one of the world’s greatest spiritual writers” by Christianity Today “In our own woundedness, we can become a source of life for others.” In this hope-filled and profoundly simple book, Henri Nouwen inspires devoted men and women who want to be of service in their church or community but who have found traditional outreach alienating and ineffective. Weaving keen cultural analysis with his psychological and religious insights, Nouwen presents a balanced and creative theology of service that begins with the realization of fundamental woundedness in human nature. According to Nouwen, ministers are called to identify the suffering in their own hearts and make that recognition the starting point of their service. Ministers must be willing to go beyond their professional, somewhat aloof roles and leave themselves open as fellow human beings with the same wounds and suffering as those they serve. In other words, we heal from our wounds. The Wounded Healer is a thoughtful and insightful guide that will be welcomed by anyone engaged in the service of others.

The Genesee Diary
Author: Henri J. M. Nouwen
Publisher: Image
ISBN: 080415208X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
During his seven-month stay in a Trappist monastery, Henri Nouwen had a unique opportunity to explore crucial issues of the spiritual life and discover "a quiet stream underneath the fluctuating affirmations and rejections of my little world." Nouwen participated fully in the daily life of the Abbey of the Genesee in upstate New York -- in work and in prayer. From the early weeks in the abbey -- dominated by conflicting desires and concerns -- to the final days of Advent, when he finds a new sense of calm expectation, Nouwen never loses his critical honesty. Insightful, compassionate, often humorous, always realistic, The Genesee Diary is both an inspiration and a challenge to those who are in search of themselves. "The Genesee Diary beautifully lifts the heart and mind to God." --Christianity Today "This is an extraordinary account of a man seeking inner peace and total commitment to God... a fine portrait of cloistered life, a beautifully written account of one man's soul-searching." --Publisher's Weekly

Pages : 304
Book Description
Developed in classroom conversation with students and written in light of their reactions and the most up-to-date scholarship in the areas of both psychology and religion, this book provides a comprehensive psychological approach to the study of religious experience. The prevailing psychological point of view is a phenomenological one, and the overriding method is developmental. Although the author's stance is admittedly a product of the Judaeo-Christian heritage, his work encompasses the wisdom of other religions and secular statements of faith. He emphasizes the principles of process and development as the individual confronts spiritual reality in his daily existence. -- Book jacket.
