Description: The project leading to this book builds on the fruits of ongoing work in interfaith spiritual care. It was designed with a twofold purpose: to foster appreciation for the uniqueness and special gifts of seven faith traditions, together with a deeper understanding of commonalities and differences among them; and to encourage collaboration among spiritual care practitioners and scholars. This book is intended for chaplains, pastors and other religious caregivers, Clinical Pastoral Education students and supervisors, counselors and psychotherapists, and others interested in the expanding field of spiritual care in our multifaith world. --
Notes: "In collaboration with the SIPCC."
