Product Description

During times of crisis and sickness, pastoral care is an essential skill for a minister to have. Pastoral Care is the ability to listen to and understand the needs of people in distress and provide the support and comfort that they need.

Pastoral Care In Practice by Michael Hopkins is a short but comprehensive book that will teach you this invaluable skill. You will learn exactly what Pastoral Care is and how to use these skills as a minister, all in a very easy to understand text. You will also find helpful examples of scripture and questions that can be used during your own practice of pastoral care.

We remind you to get ordained if you haven't already. This is the first step in the process that will allow you to legally officiate weddings of friends and family. You can also perform baptisms, preside over funerals, offer blessings, and even absolve the sins of others.
