Pastoral Care and Liberation Theology by Stephen Pattison, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Pastoral care in the Northern hemisphere has focused traditionally on the well-being of individuals, and has tended to ignore the social order of which they are a part. In this pioneering book, Stephen Pattison draws on the methods and insights of Latin American liberation theology in order to challenge such narrow individualism, which is blind to matters of inequality and injustice that engender and perpetuate avoidable human suffering. A new vision of socially and politically aware pastoral care is presented as central to developing human potential. | Pastoral Care and Liberation Theology by Stephen Pattison, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
