About
This "essay with exhibits" is a timely and significant resource in the "identity crisis" which grips the pastoral ministry today. It is a reminder that self-understanding is a dialogue with history as well as rigorous self-examination here and now. The authors blend historical perspective with theological reflection within the context of pastoral care. The focus here is upon the four pastoral functions: healing, sustaining, guiding, and reconciling. -- Charles R. Stinnette, Jr., University of Chicago, Church History volume 34 issue 1, March 1965, page 113.
