Doctor's degree Pastoral Care and Counseling - Claremont School of Theology

Doctor's degree Pastoral Care and Counseling from Claremont School of Theology is a Campus Ph.D Religious Studies degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. The people of Korea are just now beginning to address the once undiscussable effects of the Korean War-the individual, economic and social trauma of the war, the uprooted and broken families, and the conflicts that resulted from political oppression. With the modernization of South Korea, the country is experiencing cultural and social evolution in which families again make difficult adjustments as gender roles change rapidly. Likewise, as Korean migration to North America continues to increase, new cultural and religious contexts are emerging that require new approaches to addressing conflict among individuals, families and religious communities. The D.Min. in Pastoral Care and Counseling in a Korean Context is an intensive "cohort-model" program designed to enhance the understanding and practice of ministry for Korean and Korean-American clergy. The theme, "Healing and Transforming the Heart of Conflict," is culturally and theologically relevant for Korean and Korean-American churches in particular. This unique program will address individual, religious, and sociopolitical healing and transformation, focusing on how the ministry of the church can facilitate healing and transformation. Each course, intentionally designed for the theme, will address some aspect of healing and transformation from Christian perspectives. Such healing and transforming can be best facilitated when students can tell their stories in their native language. The program, therefore, is designed for students to use their most comfortable language. View more details on Claremont School of Theology .
