Description

Trauma-Sensitive Theology explores how to speak well of God and faith without further wounding survivors of trauma. This book delves into the impact of traumatic exposure, response, processing, and recovery on theology and pastoral leadership. It offers a framework for seeing trauma's influence in individuals, communities, society, and within sacred texts. By integrating spiritual practices, religious rituals, community participation, and theological thinking, clergy and spiritual care professionals can play a crucial role in the recovery of traumatic wounding and fostering resiliency. Trauma-informed congregational leaders can learn how to facilitate resiliency and respond to traumatizing abuses of relational power with this book.
