Instead of first learning some theology and then applying it to the questions of pastoral care, it is better to start from practical experience, and by reflection arrive at a theology. Ministers and trainee ministers are guided in this book towards a way of integrating theology, pastoral activity and personal faith. Since it was first published, the new 'discipline' of practical theology has grown into importance, and we are now much more aware of how groups function. These changes are reflected in this new, largely rewritten edition.

    The “Pastor” in the title is taken to mean ordained minister, but in these days of ministerial teams and appropriate lay training this well regarded series of handbooks will be useful to both lay and ordained. The Pastor as Theologian has been completely rewritten for this second edition. Some understanding of the psychological processes at work in peoples’ lives is necessary to prevent the pastor being spiritually drained. This book knits together theology, life experience and faith; it is not an “easy read” but an essential one for anyone in this field of ministry.
