Confrontation in Spiritual Care – (2022)

Well conveyed empathy, the primary skill of beginning spiritual care conversations, often needs to be augmented by the gentle challenge of well worded confrontation. The chapters of this book, written by professional chaplains and clinical pastoral educators, illustrate how they use confrontation in spiritual care in their specialty areas – in hospitals, hospices, mental health facilities, and even local churches, as well as in their colleague relationships.
