Abstract
Authenticity of the Pastors? Chances and Challenges of a Pastoral Theology in Late Modernity Fitting for the “Federation of Free Protestant Congregations” in Germany The demand for authenticity aimed at pastors in modernity and specifically of those serving in denominations with a smaller number of members evokes the necessity of relating again the pastoral office and the pastoral person in a changing society to each other.
