Clinebell's basic spiritual needs are still pertinent in 2008
Clinebell's book is a detailed guide to help ministers and seminary students develop maximum skills in basic caring and counseling techniques. I am neither a minister nor a seminary student, but I find his identification of basic spiritual needs pertinent today, in both my personal and professional life. Satisfying spiritual needs strengthens our connection with God, our fellow human beings, Mother Earth and our inner selves, our souls. We cannot satisfy our spiritual needs in isolation. The book identifies different view from psychotherapy and counseling. It provided me with insights about my own spiritual growth.

This book is a must have if you are considering going into, or practicing, pastoral care.

Comprehensive Textbook
This book has been more frequently used than any other as a textbook for courses in pastoral counseling in graduate theological schools. It is comprehensive and has stood the test of time.

clinebell's pastorial counseling & care ( clover@tranmer.net )
A great text for students, pastors and other practising counselors. It contains goals every counselor should strive to achieve. Clinebell also describes the positive characteristics a counselor should portray . The methods and types of counseling are also spelt out in this book. This book is an invaluable guide for me, one which can be adapted to some of the situations in my country.
