Pastoral Crisis Intervention Workshop class
Pastoral Crisis Intervention
Restoring the Vertical ConnectionIn times when people are mired in traumatic shock and darkness, despair can overwhelm one's soul. An individual experiences physical, cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and spiritual symptoms of stress. The challenge is to lift up those mired in the depths of shock and despair and to place them on solid ground where they can access support from their relationships with their family, friends, and God.
Recognizing and RespondingWhen faced with great turmoil and distress, people often first turn for help to their pastors. The crumpled individual’s distant stare, tears sliding slowly down the cheek, and the urgent expectation to receive some kind of hope weigh heavily upon any pastor. "What am I to say? What am I to do? This crumpled person is depending upon me!"
