Abstract

“Effective pastoral care, that is, meeting a person at the point of his [sic] need, demands that the pastor become involved in the very existence and predicament of the person, his [sic] tensions, sufferings, meanings, values, joys. This involvement can take place only through a deeply empathie experience” (Carroll Wise, 1966, p. 14)“Our bodies and minds are made for social life, and we become hopelessly depressed in its absence. This is why next to death, solitary confinement is our worst punishment.” (Frans de Waal, 2009, p. 10)
