Anxiety and creation in the clinical pastoral education context: a theology of pastoral formation.
Draws on the writings of Mircea Eliade, Paul Tillich, Søren Kierkegaard, and Henry Nelson Wieman to explicate a theology of pastoral formation as it may take form in the context of Clinical Pastoral Education. Proposes that an appreciation of the dynamics of grief is especially capable of connecting a theology of pastoral development to both the psychology of individual development and the sociology of cultural change.
