The relationship that people share with animals, called the human-animal bond, finds expression in Judeo-Christian theology as a meaningful venue for spiritual growth. The author explores ways in which a viable mainline church ministry could be developed to serve the human-animal bond. A case study of the author's personal story in ministering to people and companion animals, and doing so within an ecclesiastical structure, serves as the method of research. A pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the author concludes that Lutheran theology supports the development of ministries to the human-animal bond, while ecclesiastical polity invites further exploration.
