What comes after reflective listening? What comes after the
ministry of presence? Spiritual midwifery is a powerful framework
for offering pastoral care in today's fast-paced environment.
Midwifery offers ways of thinking about those who are served, the
work itself, and what it means to be a clinical caregiver within
the tradition of the care of souls. Spiritual midwifery has
philosophical and spiritual roots that stem from the earliest seeds
of Western thought, even back to Jesus and Socrates. Readers will
find an inductive approach toward a conceptual model that offers
insight for richer assessments and outcome-oriented goals of care.
Part One sets out the metaphors of the midwife and the dialogue.
Part Two unpacks the methodology behind the mechanics. Part Three
looks at creative applications of midwifery, and is followed by a
Symposium patterned after Plato's own Symposium. A rigorous theory
remains at the centre of the work, but the tone is poetically
balanced enough to invite the transformation of the spiritual
caregiver. From the philosophy of Heraclitus to the theology of
Kierkegaard and the spiritual direction of Guenther, The Art of
Spiritual Midwifery brings forth a comprehensive conception of
pastoral care and its delivery.
