Explores the creative roles men might play in a human liberation movement in which their privileged position will need to be modified. Sees pastoral counselors as “hope agents” who may faciliate the transition of men to new and different roles in which patriarchy will play less and less of a role in society. Details specific ways in which the loss of patriarchy can lead to a fresh and creative equality in which both men and women will experience new freedoms.

Spirituality And Sexuality

Multiple theological perspectives provide frameworks for pastoral work with lesbian, gay, bisesxual and trans individuals, families, and communities. One model is offered by those who argue for celibacy or heterosexual marriages for those who self-identify as part of LGBTQ communities. This article names other theologically grounded perspectives with the goal of inviting practitioners to broaden their understandings and wrestle with the implications of their theological and ethical stances. When reflecting on the intersection of spirituality and sexuality, the meaning of theological terms such as sin, contributions from queer theologians and pastoral counselors, and the limitations of binary categories common in our theological history, this article encourages pastoral counselors and spiritual care providers to re-examine theological assumptions they bring to their work. The article ends with questions and opportunities for ongoing pastoral theological work and reflection.

Adlerian Theory

This article is based on the view that an adlerian perspective on psychotherapy is more consistent with Christian theology than conventional psychoanalysis and that pastoral counselors should, therefore, find it more useful in their counseling. An overview of adlerian theory is presented, including views on “social interest” and “inferiority feelings.” These views are compared to Christian theology and conclusions are drawn as to implications for psychotherapy.

Psychotherapeutic Theory

Notes that pastoral counseling frequently has been criticized for its unreflective use of secular psychology and psychotherapeutic theory but that general systems theory as applied to marriage and family counseling usually escapes this criticism. Argues, however, that a feminist critique counters this general assumption, particularly as it challenges systems neutrality regarding ethics and values. Proposes that it is essential for pastoral counselors to be educated in ethics and value analysis in order to deal authentically with issues encountered in marriage and family counseling.

Female Clients

Interprets an empirical research project involving 190 pastoral counselors in terms of a set of homosexual and lesbian variables. Notes that pastoral counselors do not rate gay male and lesbian clients as significantly different from heterosexual male and female clients but do manifest significant differences between male and female clients. Observes that pastoral counselors' standards for healthy adult mental health tend to be that of a healthy adult male and that female clients are assessed either as healthy persons but as unhealthy women or as healthy women and as unhealthy persons. Concludes that the sex-role stereotyping revealed in the study discriminates against both men and women. Discusses pastoral implications in view of the research findings.
