Pastoreando pastores: um estudo de caso da praxis pastoral na ASSIBAS

Eugeniuo Jesus Luque Quispe 20 April 2010 (has links)
Pastoreando pastores: um estudo de caso da práxis pastoral na ASSIBAS. O presente trabalho aborda sobre os fundamentos teológicos para o pastoreio de pastores. Apresentando uma breve descrição do pastor na bíblia e descrevendo como o Antigo e o Novo Testamento descreve sobre a figura do pastor. O texto também considera o ministério pastoral, definindo termos como: pastor, pastorear, cuidado, mentorear, liderar, proteger e alimentar e os relaciona à prática do ministério pastoral do pastor, com a intenção de entender de maneira coerente e clara o desenvolvimento do ministério pastoral por parte do pastor. Este trabalho aborda o pensamento que os pastores, através da coleta de dados numa pesquisa de campo e de estudo de caso, têm com relação ao seu próprio cuidado. Os resultados foram obtidos através de um questionário preparado exclusivamente para colher posicionamentos, sentimentos e necessidades de pastores da ASSIBAS, com relação aos cuidados da sua pessoa. Realiza-se uma análise dos questionários respondidos, constatando a carência dos pastores em relação aos cuidados pastorais. Ou seja, é necessário que os pastores, que fazem parte da ASSIBAS, tenham consciência da importância de ter um pastor para ser pastoreado. A pesquisa reflete sobre a importância do motivo pelo qual o pastor deve se preocupar com o seu próprio cuidado, considerando a imagem que o pastor tem perante a sua comunidade, a necessidade de conscientizá-lo sobre o cuidado mútuo entre os pastores. O texto também ressalta a importância do cuidado que o pastor deve ter com o seu próprio corpo, observando a questão da alimentação, do sono, da vida mental e emocional e do cuidado com a sua espiritualidade. O pastoreio de pastores torna-se uma necessidade para os pastores que fazem parte das igrejas da ASSIBAS, pois temos pastores que priorizam a sua comunidade, ou seja, se envolvem integralmente nos cuidados das suas ovelhas enquanto descuidam o seu próprio cuidado. Os pastores precisam também ser pastoreados por um pastor humano que tenha mais experiência e possa ser conduzido por pastos verdejantes no seu ministério pastoral. / Pastoreando pastores: un estudio de caso de la praxis pastoral en la ASSIBAS.

O sea, se hace necesario que los pastores que hacen parte de la ASSIBAS, necesitan ser conscientizados de la importancia de tener un pastor para ser pastoreado. La pesquisa reflite sobre la importancia del porque el pastor debe preocuparse de su próprio cuidado, considerando la imagen que la comunidad tiene acerca de su pastor, la necesidad de la concientización sobre el cuidado mutuo entre pastores.

Los pastores necesitan también ser pastoreados por un pastor humano que tenga mas experiencia y puedan ser conducidos por pastos delicados en su ministério pastoral.

An appreciation of the correlation between academic theology and the local church : John Calvin as a vision for contemporary South Africa

Womack, Jonathan January 2018 (has links)
This work, inspired by the concept of the Pastor-Theologian, explores the correlation between academic theology and the local church in contemporary South Africa and the person of John Calvin. It is motivated by the assumption that academic theology and the local Church need each other but, within South Africa, these two institutes are struggling to correlate to each other. As such this research elicits an appreciation of the historical correlation between the local Church and academic theology. This appreciation aims to start to reawaken the need for a correlation between academic theology and the local Church within contemporary South Africa. This research works mainly from a method of critical correlation to establish how academic theology and the local church function in their own right but also correlate in a mutually beneficial way. In line with this methodology, a historical overview of the tradition is given providing the background to the debate. This history proves the longevity of the tradition, making it normative, while also outlining its demise. In the analysis of contemporary South Africa, the demise of the tradition is explored specifically in relation to the South African context. Here it is discovered that the correlation between academic theology and the Local church is in a state of disconnect which is detrimental to both. Academic theology is becoming isolated and commercialised. This had created a mix reaction among various churches. Some denominations have separated from theological education, while those still positive towards the academy experience its works to be irrelevant. In response to this Calvin is presented as a Pastor and a Theologian over two chapters, demonstrating the benefit of a correlation between academic theology and the Local Church. This in-depth historical analysis works to provide a vision for today. It shows the importance of the Pastor and the Theologian in its own right, as well as the essential need for the two vocations to correlate. In closing, this research brings all the lines of investigation together to prove how the vision of the Pastor-Theologian, as demonstrated through Calvin, is beneficial for today and in need of appreciation. / Dissertation (MTh)--University of Pretoria, 2018. / Church History and Church Policy / MTh / Unrestricted

William Andrew White Jr.: Portrait of an African Canadian Pastor, Chaplain, and Activist

Brown, Dudley A. 11 1900 (has links)
The role of the African Canadian pastor transcended the responsibilities of a religious leader of a local church to become the leader of the African Canadian community and its emissary to the larger white community. Through his exemplary Christian faith and practice, William Andrew White Jr. became a central figure in the African Canadian community. His role in African Canadian life was fluid and adaptive to the adversities of slavery, segregation, discrimination, and racism; over the years his role grew from spiritual leader providing care, self-esteem, and protection for his local church to also becoming one of polemicist, activist, and protest leader for the African Canadian community in general. Overall, this dissertation argues that the experiences gained by William Andrew White Jr. during the periods of Reconstruction and Redemption in the United States and the discrimination and racism he incurred in Canada, were foundational in shaping White’s theology. Additionally studying his influences and motivations assists in understanding White’s theology and his praxis for race relations and social justice; it is a theology that sought to foster racial harmony through black economic uplift and black socio-political engagement that laid the groundwork for the Canadian Civil Rights Movement. Ultimately, this dissertation argues that William White was a progenitor of the Canadian Civil Rights Movement and, while his national presence among the white community was not that of Martin Luther King Jr.’s, he did have a prominent presence among the black community in the Maritimes and, had he lived longer, may have become a significant national figure in Canada. Furthermore, the role he played setting the foundation for the Canadian Civil Rights Movement was similar to that of the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States.

A theological perspective on the holistic needs of emeritus pastors of the Apostolic Faith Mission of SA / Etresia Martha Evans

Evans, Etresia Martha January 2014 (has links)
Retirement is an unavoidable and necessary phase in a person’s life. It is also one of the biggest transitions in the life cycle of a human being. Emeritus of the Apostolic Faith Mission of S.A. (AFM) have positive and negative feelings regarding their retirement. In the light of this fact the research question was posed: How can the AFM, from a pastoral perspective, understand the situation of, prepare and assist its emeritus in coping effectively with retirement - in the process addressing their holistic needs - maintaining a meaningful life in the service of God as integral members of His community? With reference to the abovementioned question it is the overall aim of this study to research the holistic needs of the pastors of the AFM, with the objective to create a pastoral model for retirement preparation. In so doing they can remain integral members of God`s community whose holistic needs are taken care of, in a Christian way. The study was done by using the practical-theological model of Osmer as starting point which comprises the following: * the normative task, where Scriptural perspectives on the topic have been researched; * the interpretative task, according to which material from other disciplines are studied; * an empirical research by way of interviews with emeritus; * and a practice theory to design a model for pre-retirement planning for pastors of the AFM. The normative task part of the research indicates that although the Bible does not say much regarding emeritus, definite direction is found regarding old age. God speaks through, and gives direction in his Word concerning the elderly. In the interpretative task part of the study very little literature is found regarding the retirement of clergy. Information exists, however, on the subject of the elderly. Numerous guidelines are also found in Scripture a propos the pastors as a holistic person in connection with body, soul and spirit. Research indicated that preparation for retirement is of cardinal importance. The results which surfaced from the empirical study, confirmed the normative and interpretative theoretical research. Subsequently the practice theory has been formulated from the hermeneutical interaction of the different elements of the research in the format of a model for pre-retirement planning. A model where the strategy for planning has been explained has been compiled finally. Matters related to the problems and fears of emeritus were addressed in creating a model. The intention of the pre-retirement education is to reduce the effect of negative stereotypes of retirement. It will further assist pastors to develop realistic goals for their retirement. With reference to the research question, central theoretical argument and the research reflected in chapters 2 to 5, the final conclusion states that pre-retirement planning for pastors of the AFM is very important. / PhD (Pastoral studies), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2014

Aspectos sanitarios de los archivos parroquiales de la iglesia de los santos Justo y Pastor de Barcelona (1800-1850)

Escuder Pérez, Jorge 04 March 2002 (has links)
OBJETIVOS:La investigación va dirigida a la identificación de Médicos, Cirujanos y Farmacéuticos de la primera mitad del siglo XIX El estudio de las causas de muerte, el otro objetivo principal de esta tesis, se realiza a través de los libros parroquiales de mortalidadEn cuanto al estudio de otros aspectos sanitarios, efectuaremos una valoración de:- Los nacimientos - Los matrimonios: - La mortalidad. - Las pequeñas epidemias: - Acontecimientos sociales diversos.CONCLUSIONESLas conclusiones de este trabajo de investigación histórica las dividiremos en dos apartados: uno dedicado a las noticias médicas, y otro dedicado a la demografía y a los cambios sociales.A.- Noticias Médicas.1. En la revisión de los Libros Sacramentales de la Iglesia de los Santos Justo y Pastor, he constatado la existencia, a lo largo de la primera mitad del siglo XIX, de un total de 277 profesionales de la sanidad, distribuidos de la siguiente forma:Cirujanos: 167Médicos: 91Farmacéuticos: 19Algunos de ellos ya están registrados en el Diccionario Biográfico de Médicos Catalanes de los doctores J.M. Calbet i Camarasa y J. Corbella i Corbella; otros eran hasta ahora desconocidos, de los cuales he recogido su identidad y demás datos biográficos que de ellos aparecen en los libros.2. Con frecuencia he constatado relaciones familiares nuevas creadas entre miembros de diferentes familias de profesionales sanitarios (matrimonios, bautizos) y también con personas pertenecientes a otras profesiones liberales (abogados, notarios, etc.). También he descubierto, en ocasiones, un antepasado familiar de la misma profesión3. Podemos destacar, por su prestigio, a los doctores y cirujanos siguientes:Dr. D. Josep Manel Capdevila Alvia i de Vilardaga.Dr. D. Josep Castells i Comás.Dr. D. Joaquín Cil i Bores.Dr. D. Francisco de Paula Folch i Amich.Dr. D. Juan Bautista Foix i Gual.Dr. D. Antonio Mendoza Rueda.Dr. D. Vicens Mitjavila Fisonell.Dr. D. Macari Riu.Dr. D. Agustí Yañez i Girona.Dr. D. Josep Baroy.Dr. D. Domènec Bover.4. Se mantiene, entre estos profesionales, la proporción iniciada en el siglo XVIII, en la cual hay casi el doble de cirujanos que de médicos.5. En dos casos, en el de los doctores Francisco Dalmau y Antonio Maglia, se refieren las noticias a ellos como médicos especialistas.6. Las causas de muerte, cuando se especifican, son variables. He comprobado que, conforme avanzaba el siglo, los diagnósticos se hacían más precisos, sobre todo a partir del 1 de abril de 1838, fecha a partir de la cual una orden gubernativa obligaba a firmar los certificados de defunciónB.- Aspectos demográficos y sociales.1. En la revisión de los Libros de Óbitos, Matrimonios y Bautismos, de la Iglesia de los Santos Justo y Pastor de Barcelona, durante la primera mitad del S.XIX se han registrado un total de:9834 Bautismos5907 Defunciones3708 Matrimonios2. Durante estos 50 años se produce un incremento vegetativo de la población del 40 %, a pesar de haber existido periodos con crecimiento negativo, debido a la penuria económica (1800), a las guerras (1809-1815) o a las epidemias (1821).3. A partir de 1834 se produce un descenso de la mortalidad, sobre todo de la infantil, difícil de explicar.4. La mortalidad en los adultos fue mayor durante los meses de invierno; en cambio, la de los niños fue mayor durante los meses de julio y agosto,5. En el 68 % de los óbitos esta reflejada la causa de muerte.6. Existe una progresiva disminución del número de hijos por matrimonio a medida que avanza el siglo.7. Los hijos de padres desconocidos representan un porcentaje del 1,64, muy bajo respecto al número total de nacimientos, sobre todo si se le compara con el de los siglos anteriores, que fue del 8.89% en el siglo XVII y del 3,1% en el siglo XVIII.8. El porcentaje de albats fallecidos es del 30%. 9. La media de nacimientos por matrimonio fue de 2,62 hijos/matrimonio. / OBJECTIVES:Analysis of demographic aspects and localitation of ancient physicians, surgeons and pharmacist in the firt half of XIX century.
