Description
This course focuses on developing a Womanist/Feminist approach to the concerns women present for pastoral care. Pastoral response to women requires an integrated approach that brings scholarly discourse into dialectic engagement with personal experience. This dialectic is cultivated through study of Womanist and Feminist pastoral theologians and practitioners who identify and deconstruct the cultural assumptions and practices that impact women’s lives. The intended outcome is to develop a pastoral theological method for care that is ultimately liberating and empowering for women who seek the support of female and male pastoral professionals.
