| 释义 |
The Inner Healing Movement refers to a grassroots counseling movement among Christians of various denominations. Its principal method is calling up suppressed or hurtful memories in order to deal with them. History and descriptionPractitioners in the Inner Healing Movement may not always have formal training in counseling or psychology. Christian psychologist and academic Fernando Garzon views this in a positive light, saying: "it may serve people who might not get help otherwise, cannot afford professional therapy, do not wish to use insurance, or have access to counseling limited by managed care. Others belong to churches in which the pastor is either are not trained, not interested, or not available (due to having too many other pastoral duties) to meet the needs for pastoral counseling. Still others simply may trust lay people, whom they know, more than a therapist, whom they do not know. In addition, the training itself may benefit the lay counselors spiritually and emotionally."[1] Agnes Sanford (1897–1982) is considered to be the mother of the inner healing movement, and with her husband founded The Agnes Sanford School of Pastoral Care in 1958.[2] She was the daughter of a Presbyterian missionary in China, and the wife of an Episcopal rector. Her first book, The Healing Light, is considered classic in its field. Agnes was the mother of Jungian analyst Jack Sanford. The inner healing movement is also often compared and associated with Inner Healing and Healing of Memories. Other people who feature prominently in its history are Ruth Carter Stapleton,[3] Leanne Payne, and Charles Fillmore. A number of organizations are currently active, including Elijah House,[4] Ministries of Pastoral Care,[5] and Sozo Ministries[6]. Another important part of Christian Inner Healing Methods is the active involvement of God in the healing work taking place. The belief that God heals both physical and mental problems is a long-standing Christian belief, originating in traditional Jewish beliefs. In recent years, Theophostic Prayer Ministry (TPM) techniques in particular have become popular amongst some Christian counselors. Others however, believe TPM is a new favorable approach, with some of its underlying principles being compared with those of Recovered Memory Therapy (RMT).[7] In the Journal of Psychology and Theology, Spring 2004, Christian psychologist David Entwistle summarised some concerns associated with Theophostic methods: 'TPM follows in the lineage of "healing of memory" techniques, though it departs from that lineage in a number of important respects. Numerous concerns exist surrounding insufficient attempts to ground TPM in biblical concepts; inadequate and often flawed explanations of basic psychological processes; dubious claims about the prevalence of DID, SRA, and demonic activity; estimates of traumatic abuse that exceed empirical findings; and the failure to sufficiently appreciate the possibility of iatrogenic memory contamination.'[8] References1. ^Lay Christian Counseling and Client Expectations for Integration in Therapy Journal of Psychology and Christianity (in press) Garzon et al, Liberty University 2. ^{{Cite web |url=http://www.schoolofpastoralcare.net/ |title=The School of Pastoral Care |access-date=2018-11-30 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180104160312/http://www.schoolofpastoralcare.net/ |archive-date=2018-01-04 |dead-url=yes |df= }} 3. ^Time Magazine Obituary: Monday, Oct. 10, 1983 Ruth Carter Stapleton 4. ^Elijah House 5. ^[https://ministriesofpastoralcare.com/ Ministries of Pastoral Care] 6. ^[https://bethelsozo.com Sozo Ministries] 7. ^Controversial international ministry operates from Campbellsville – Central Kentucky News Journal, July 2, 2003 by Jan Fletcher 8. ^Shedding light on Theophostic Ministry 1: practice issues – Journal of Psychology and Theology, Spring 2004, by David N.
