- This study surveys divorce in America today. It ascertains general trends and attitudes, examines the central biblical, theological and psychological issues and assesses the unique factors of clergy divorce, e.g., what it is like to have marital difficulties which are adversely affecting not only family well-being and happiness but also one's ability to minister and perform pastoral care? of tremendous concern is how the people of the church react when their pastor announces the fact of the separation and/or divorce. Will judgment override all caring and support? who will respond and how? what about his/her ministerial image? the writer was amazed to learn that even though a judgmental attitude toward divorce still harbors within the Christian community, there is a growing tolerance and acceptance of it within the more liberal, mainline parishes. The final chapter offers suggestions to the local church and to church officials as to ways of helping stem the increasing tide of clergy divorce. Clergy are often the last to seek counseling and are subject to the pressures of unreal expectations which are often mutually accepted by pastors and parishioners and others with whom they relate.
