The Suicidal Person And Pastoral Care, Donald Wunrow
The Suicidal Person And Pastoral Care, Donald Wunrow
Master of Divinity Thesis
This paper comprises an examination of the problem of suicide, particularly the dynamics operative in the potentially suicidal individual, and the dynamics operative in a pastoral approach to suicide prevention. Attention will be given to the recognition of presuicidal behavior and to the role which the pastor assumes to prevent the individual from acting out his self-destructive communication.
