Descrizione
Riepilogo:This article addresses the psychologies of care associated with theologies of subjugation/subordination and theologies of vulnerability. It is argued that a pastoral psychology of care necessarily emerges in relation to and is dependent on theologies of vulnerability. These theologies, in other words, provide the reasons, beliefs, motivations, and values associated with caring dispositions and actions. I contend further that one finds support for these theologies in the life, ministry, and death of Jesus. By contrast, theologies of subjugation, evident and pervasive in Judeo-Christian scriptures, foster psychologies that undermine care for Others.
