What does it truly mean to care for the souls of others? This exploration delves into the understanding of the soul and its implications for pastoral care. By revisiting the biblical perspective on the soul, Nauer presents a form of pastoral care that resonates with postmodern individuals, grounded in the Judaeo-Christian view of humanity and divinity. The text outlines the necessary competencies and role profiles for pastoral caregivers, offering a comprehensive concept of pastoral care that expands its scope while necessitating prioritization. This framework serves as a guide for practitioners to clarify their approach to pastoral care. In the context of professional caregivers, the book addresses the fundamental question of what it means to care for others' souls and the specific forms of care required by different understandings of the soul. By emphasizing the practical implications for everyday pastoral practice, Nauer provides a holistic understanding that broadens the possibilities for pastoral action while also demanding thoughtful prioritization from individuals and their teams. This work can be utilized not only as a textbook on pastoral care but also as a practical guide to refine one’s own pastoral approach.
