- Abstract
- The pastoral counseling activities were examined in a survey of 491 rural clergy from seven Northern Plains states. It was found that 86 percent of the respondents engaged in formal pastoral counseling; they engaged in counseling an average of 10 hours per month, and they encountered a limited variety of counseling problems. Congregational and community context and job-related institutional characteristics accounted for differences in both the amount and variety of counseling more than did clergy's personal characteristics. Implications are offered for seminary and post-seminary training, placement of clergy in churches, pastoral counseling in rural congregations, and contextualized theology and ministry.
