The Relationship

Opines that in order for specialized pastoral counseling to effectively address the broad and complex diversity of the African American community, it must re-examine the pastoral counseling movement's Eurocentric approach and look realistically at the characteristics of the Black Church and the black community. Illustrates ways in which one institution—the Center for Holistic Ministry—attempts to meet the challenge implicit in the African American community. Explicates several facets of the relationship between the African American pastoral counseling movement and the pastoral counseling movement at large.
