Kornfeld's treatment of listening, women's needs, clergy confidentiality, unemployment, fee-taking, and the health and spirituality of the 'counselor in community' is brilliant."--Christian Century"A state-of-the-art guide for all who minister today!"--Catholic Library World"A wise, humane, and practical book about healing in religious communities."--Values and Visions"Kornfeld has put a well-honed tool into the hands of seminarians, deacons, and any minister hoping to develop the gifts of lay leaders. This book is no garden plot but acres of information."--Pastoral Life"A book you will pull off the shelf many times for additional reference.... With many self-help books full of 'new age' methodologies on the market, this book provides a sound antidote."--The Princeton Seminary Bulletin"Margaret Kornfeld's excellent, encyclopedic book, Cultivating Wholeness, addresses the very real need for expert, accessible, and wise guidance. Kornfeld...provides both a broad and thorough discussion of key issues that leaders of faith communities and lay caregivers regularly face. Not only does she analyze pragmatic matters—such as clergy confidentiality, unemployment, and fee-taking—but she also sensitively attends to the spiritual well-being of the "counselor in community." A wide range of readers, lay and ordained, will welcome Kornfeld's clear and thoughtful presentation. In a pastor's study filled with care and counseling books, this is the best guide of its kind I know. Keep it handy on your shelf. —Congregations, Fall 2005 -- Congregations

A number of policy aspects are explored, including understanding service users' needs, recruitment, and communications.This book is essential reading for non-religiousTrade Review'This is a much-needed intervention on the growing phenomenon of non-religious pastoral care within chaplaincy contexts. It will undoubtedly raise challenges for chaplaincies and institutions across a wide range of settings in British public life.' - Ben Ryan, Researcher at Theos Think Tank, author of A Very Modern Ministry: Chaplaincy in the UK‘This timely book sketches an innovative and inspiring view of pastoral care that is relevant for professionals and managers involved in spiritual/pastoral care provisions and chaplaincy, both within and beyond the UK.
