The Crux of the Matter

CRUX Episode 17 - Pastoral Transparency

Listen Later

Pastoral Theology books tend to focus on what pastors do much more than who pastors are. What is the relationship between the pastoral office and the individual bearer of that office?  And how does that impact what we might call self-disclosure? Scott and Todd discuss pastoral identity, confidentiality, and being true to yourself. But not in a cheesy way.
