Abstract
SummaryArtefacts are the works of human hands and they profoundly shape humans physically, psychologically and socially. However, pastoral care and pastoral theology have mostly ignored the artifactual dimensions of human existence. This paper explores the significance of artefacts for humans, and the kinds of relationships they have with them. It is argued that a full vision of pastoral care needs to include some positive acknowledgement of artifactual effects and relationships. Some preliminary suggestions for taking artefacts more seriously in pastoral care and theology are then advanced.
