Pastoral Crisis Intervention There are five gospels of Jesus Christ -Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and you, the Christian. Many will never read the first four. Giosy Smith.
The urgent need for pastoral crisis intervention. Human suffering is universal and pervasive, but healing and recovery is unique; depending on the casualties' faith, mindset, and whether what they do is healthy or unhealthy. Though curing methods, including medication, can bring temporary relief and cure, the healing and wholeness cannot be completely achieved through them. Finding temporary relief from physical, mental and emotional pain is not healing, but anesthetizing. When a crisis appears in one's life, it affects the whole person; one's physical, mental/ social, and spiritual being. The human being cannot be separated from the part of him affected, not even in the healing process. Therefore in the healing and recovery process/ the whole person must be involved. In search for healing, it is not only for the psychological, emotional, and physical cure - but also for relational and spiritual transformation. "Psychological, social and political revolutions have not been able to transform the heart of darkness that lies deep in the breast of every human being. Amid a flood of self fulfillment, there is an epidemic of depression, suicide, personal emptiness, and escapism... So obviously the problem is a spiritual one. And so must be the cure.'' The Spirit of the Discipline; Dallas Willard
(1988).
Therefore, when a person is in a crisis situation, the care of the whole person must be our mission, as it was by the great healer Jesus himself (Luke 4:23). "All praise to the God and Father of our Master, Jesus the Messiah! Father of all mercy! God of all healing counsel! He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us. We have plenty of hard times that come from following the Messiah; but no more so than the good times of his healing

comfort--we get a full measure of that, too." 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 (The Message) There is a great need in our community for spiritual leaders who can thoughtfully bring healing and wholeness to those in crisis. This has become very urgent need because of steady growth in crisis in and around us. The healing ministry is a call from God, and anyone though becoming a healer for the wounded soul, may answer this call. Therefore after you go through this initial training, restudy the material, think, reflect, pray, listen to your self and God. Discover your calling from God. "Give me the power, dear Lord, to speak the truth straightforwardly and yet ~cceptab.!Y, so that they all may be built up in faitn;tiope, and love ... Teach me therefore, sweet Lord, how to restrain the restless, comfort the discouraged, and the weak. Teach me to suit myself to everyone according to t!is n~e, character, and dls.e_osition, according to his power of understanding or lack of it, as time and place require". A praver bv Aelred, the abbot oft/]§_ Rievaulx in Yorkshire, England. Do you have a calling to be a healer in your social and faith community?

Healing connection between psychological and spiritual intervention.
In the healing process, spirituality has been purposely disregarded in the past. However, most of the medical and mental health care institutions are somewhat open minded with involving spirituality in the process of healing. Researches done by the respected educational institution such as Harvard and Duke have proved that spirituality plays a significant role in the healing process. Consequently, we could candidly experience the mental and emotional health care agents by embracing and allowing spirituality to be a part of the healing process. Therefore they recognize the R_rofessional clergies who have trainjng in ~he psychological discipliQf? ~s healing .agents. pastoral car;~~:Sltt ~

are called to be healing agents of God, "The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is upon me, because the LORD has appointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to announce that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed. He has sent me to tell those who mourn that the time of the LORD's favor has come." Isaiah 61:1-2 (New Living Translation) Today the healthcare institution have begun to accept the fact that their customers believe that God created them as a whole person, He did not put together as parts of an unrelated system. "I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well." Psalm 139:14 {New King James Version). The healthcare system has greater awareness that when a person experience difficulty in his body, he also automatically experience distress in his mental, emotional, social and spiritual being. Therefore at the heart of any healing, the Creator of the body has to be part of it. The good news is that Jesus is in the midst of healing and wholeness. Therefore, we as his healing agents have the opportunity to bring His presence into the lives of the people who experience medical, physiological and psychological issues both inc mon rule of spiritual medical and crisis situations. Let us the fi care in the healing ministry ·is the same as medi I and psychological intervention- do no harm...!..and the second is self-car~for the healer. ~t

Genesis 34 {The Message) lOne day Dinah, the daughter Leah had given .Jacob, went to visit some of the women in that country. 2Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite who was chieftain " there, saw her and raped her. H'l'hen he felt a strong attraction to Dinah, ,Jacob's daughter, fell in love with her and wooed her. 4Shecltem went to hi~ father Hamor, "Oct me this girl for my wife." 5Jacob heard that Shechem had raped his daughter Dinah, but his 11ons were out in the fields with the livestock so he didn't say anything until they got home. 6Hamor, Shcchem's father, went to Jacob to work out m:n..-iage arrangements. 7Meanwhile Jacob's sons on their way back from the fields heard what had 1,. happened. They were outraged, explosive with anger. Shechem's rape of Jacob's daughter was intolerable in Israel ~nd not to be put up with. 8Hamor spoke with Jacob and his sons,
"My S<m Shechcm is head over heels in love with your daughter··give her to him as his wife. 9Intermarry with us. Give your daughters to us and we'll give our daughters to you. 10Live together with us as one fnmily. Settle down a~ong us and make your$elves at home. Prosper among us." llShechem then spoke for himself, addressing Dinah's father and brothers: "Please, say yes. l'll p~!J anything. 12Set the bridal price as high as you will--the sky's the limit! Only give me this girl for my wife.''
13Jacoh's sons answered Shechcm and his father with cunning. Their sister, after all, had been raped. 14Thcy said, "1rhi(-l 'is impossible. We could never give our sister io a man who was uncircumcised. Why, we'd be disgraced. 151'he only condition on which we can talk business is if all your men become circumcised like us. 16Then we will freely exchange daughters in marriage and make Oltrselves at home among yo"Q and become one big, happy family. 17llut if this is not nn acceptable condition, we will take (>Ur sister and leave." 18That seemed fair enough t.o Hamor and his son Shechem. 19Thc young man was so smitten with Jaeob's daughter that he proceeded to do what h

hands on it_ So let's do what they ask and hlive them settle down with us." 24Everyone who was anyone in the city agreed with Hamor and his son, Shechem: every male was circumcised_ 25'l'hree days after the dr<:umdsion, while al1 the men were still very sore, two of Jacob's sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each with his sword in hand, walked into the city as if they ow ned tl1e place and murdered every man there. 2b'They also killed Hamor and his son Shechem, rescued Dinah from Shechem'a house, and left. 27When the rest of .Jacob's sons came on the scene of slaughter, they

looted the entire city in retaliation for Dinah's rape_ 28Flocks, herds, donkeys, belongings··everyth.ing, whether in the city or the fie1ds··they took. 29And then they took all the wives and children captive and ransacked their homes for anything valuable. 30Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You've made my name stink to high heaven among the people here, these Canaanites and Peri:t;zites_ Tf they decided to g<mg up on us and attack, as few as we are we wouldn't l'lbtnd a chance; they'd wipe me and my people right off the map." 31They s:~id, "Nobody is going to treat our sister like a whore and get by with it."
God brings healing and wholeness Example 1: Ezekiel 37(The Message) Breath of Life IGOD grabbed me. GOD's Spirit took me up and sat me down in the middle of an open plain strewn with bones. 2He led me around and among them--a lot of bones! There were honea all over the plain--dry bones, bleached by the sun. 3He said to me, "Son of man, can these hones live?" I said, "Master GOD, only you 1 know that." 4He said to me, "Prophesy over these · bones: "Dry bones, listen to the Message of I GOD!"' 5GOD, the Master, told the dry bones, "Watch this: I'm bringing the breath of life to you and you'll come to life_ 61'll attach sinews to you, put meat on your bones,. cover you with skin, :md breathe life into you. You'll come alive and you'll realize that I am GOD!'' 7T prophesied just as I'd been commanded_ As I prophesied, there was a sound and, oh, rustling! The hones moved and came together, bone to bone_ SI kept watching. Sinews formed, then muscles on
the bones, then skin stretched over them. But they had 110 breath in them. 9He said to me, "Prophesy to the breath_ Prophesy, son of man. Tell the breath, "GOD, the Master, says, Come from the four winds. Come, breath_ Breathe on these slain bodies. Breathe life!''' IOSo I prophesied, just as he commanded me. The breath entered them and they came alive! They stood up on their feet, a huge army. ll Then God said to me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of IsraeL I ,istcn to what they'.re saying: "Our bones are dried up, our hope is gone, there's nothing left of us_' 12"Therefore, prophesy. Tell them, "GOD, the Master, says: I'll dig up your graves and bring you out alivc··O mY people! Then I'll take you straight to the land of Israel. 13When I dig up graves and bring you Ol.lt as my people, you'll realize that 1 am GOD_ 141'11 breathe my life into you and yoll'lllive.

The post traumatic disorder and its consequences. Description of Traumatic Incidents, and Victims Reactions "Psychological trauma is an affliction of the powerless. At the moment of trauma, the victim is rendered helpless by overwhelming ·force ... Traumatic events overwhelm the ordinary systems of care that gives people a sense of control, connection and meaning." Trauma and Recovery (1992) p.32.
+
The traumatic event is something extraordinary, not within the range of typical human range of experience.
+
The intensity of the reaction of the traumatic incidents depend on several factors: o severity of the event o persistence of the event o extent of exposure o Interpretation o Meaning
T yplcal reactions
to trauma
Not everyone experiences the same set of responses to trauma, but people typically experience reactions that fall into four basic categories. Here are some reactions that victims may be experiencing: Psychological and Emotional
• Heightened anxiety or fear • Irritability, restlessness, or over excitability • Feelings of sadness, moodiness, more crying than usual • Feelings of helplessness or hopelessness • Feelings of numbness or detachment • "Survivor guilt", or feelings of self-blame that you escaped the tragedy • Re-experiencing of the traumatic event. possibly including: o intrusive thoughts or images of the event o distressing dreams or nightmares o flashbacks about the event o distress when exposed to events that remind the victim of the trauma • Feelings of estrangement or isolation from others

Genesis 3
Crisis:The Fall of Man 1 Now the serpent war; more crafty th;:m any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He .said to the woman, "Did God rea11y say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"
2 The woman said to the serpent, "We may e;tt fruit from the trees i11 the garden, 3 but God did say, 'You must not cat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, ;md you must not touch it, or you will die.'" 4 "You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman. 5 "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good ;md evil."
6 When the woman s;:~w that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, ;md also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with ., her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves 0 ''together and made coverings for themselves. 8 Then the man and his wife heard the smmd of the LORD God he was walking in the garden in the (:001 of the day, and '-· they hld from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the LORD God called to the man, "Where are you'?"

.J 10 He answered, "1 heard you in the (. garden, and 1 was afraid because I was naked; so I hid."
11 And he said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have yotl eaten from the tree that I comm;mdcd you not to eat from?"
t
12 The man said, "The woman you put here with me-she gave me some fruit from the tree, and 1 ate it."
1:~ Then the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived ~ me, and I ate."
14 So the LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, "Cursed are you ;ibovc all the livestock and all the wild animals! You will crawl on your belly ;~nd you will eat dust all the days of your
life. 15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring 1111 and hers; he will crush I~J your head, and you will strike his heel." 16 'fo the woman he said, "I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you." 17 To Adam he said, "Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, 'You must not eat of it,' "Cursed is the gronnd because of you; through painful t.oil you will eat c)f it all the days of your life.
18lt will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field . 19 By the sweat of your brow you will eat your {Q(Jd tmtil you return to the ground, since from it you were tHken; for dust you arc and to du$t you will return." 20 Adam fel named his wife Eve, 1M because she would become the mot.her of all the living.

1. Loss of meaning 2. 3. 4. 5.
Loss of innocence Feelings of shame and doubt Denial and secrecy Physical and emotional symptoms: Anger, guilt, fear, grief and sorrow.

1. Confession 2. Forgiveness EXAMPLE: Psalm 77 (The Message) 1 I yell out to my God, I yell with all my might, Tyell at the top of my lungs.

Will he never smile again? 8Is his love worn threadbare'? Has his salvation promise burned out? 9Has God forgotten his manners? Has he angrily :-~talked off and left us?

Things to in healthy pastoral intervention Listening to the victims is the most central in the ministry of presence when we are involved in crisis and non-crisis intervention.
But I don't know what to say! Exodus 4:10-12 10 Moses said to the LORD, "0 Lord~ I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of 8peech and tongue." 11 The LORD said to him, "Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the LORD ? 12 Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say."
Victims are in need of your C.A.LL. • Comfort and Comion • A warm touch • Listening ears • Lifting their spirits
Healthv Statements that could be used in your listening; 1. I am so sorry this happened to you 2. I am so sorry 3. It is harder than most people think 4. I will try my best to listen, please tell me 5. It is OK to cry 6. I am so sorry, it must be very painful Unhealthy Statements that should not be used in listening: 1. I know how you feel 2.

~Healing scripture and prayer in the pastoral crisis intervention During a time of crisis people do go through a "crisis of their faith." Sometime quick mention of God and scripture may: not be helpful. As we all know the ~criptur~ has been used to oppress. dominate an,p at the same tjme far healing and reconciliation~ renewing of relationship with God and people. If the pastor senses it is appropriate to use scripture and prayer, it must carefully done for healing of the victims not to uphold pastoral authorit¥,.

Sometimes the Pastors find the story of Job as a convenient age to refer to show ultimate reward for suffering. Let us not forget the age gives a picture that God allows pain or inflicting pain as a test of faith. So this age may not be the one to lift the spirit and bring hope of healing.
-Healing is pOssible by patience, persiStence I [·------and P!.~yer. __ _ Some of the scripture that may be helpful are: Psalm 9:9 (New International Version) The LORD is a refuge tor the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.

my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me? Psalm 28:1, 2, 6 & 7 (New International Version) 1 To you I call, 0 LORD my Rock; do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if y\>U remain silent, I will be like those who have gone down to the pit. 2 Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you tor help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place. 6 Praise be to the LORD, for he has heard my cry for mercy. 7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts ln him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. Psalm 30:1-3 (New International Version)

1 Kings 19 lAhab reported to Je:.~ebel everything that Elijah had done, including the tn;tssactc of the prophets. 2.Te7..cbcl immediately sent a messenger to Elijah with her threat: "The gods will c$ get you for this and I'll get even with yoll! By tlli.s time tomorrow you1ll be as dead as any one of those prophets." 1" 3When Elijah saw how things were, he ran for dear life to Beersheba, far in the south of ~Judah. He left his young servant there 4and then went on into the desert another day's journey. He carne to a lone broom bush and collapsed in its shade, wanting in the worst way to be done with it all--to just die: "Enough of this, GOD! Take my life--I'm l'eady to my ~ ~ am:estors in the wave!" 5Exhausted, he fell asleep under the lone broom bush. Suddenly an angel shook him awake and said, "Get up and eat!" ,. SHe looked around and, to his surprise, right by his head were a loaf of bread baked on / some coals a~d a jug ofwat~r. He ate th~ ~ea} and wen~ hack to ~lcep. . 7The angel of. GOD came back, shook hilll aw::tke agam, and sa1d, "Get up and eat some more--you've got a long j<JUrncy ahead of you." 8Hc got up, ate and drank his fiJI, and set out. Nourished by that meal, he walked forty days and nights, all the way to the mountain of ('"fOCI., to Horeb. 9When he got there, he crawled into a cave and went to sleep. 1'hen the word of GOD came to him: "So Elijah, what are you doing here?" lO"l've been working my heart out for the GOD-of-the· Angel-Armies,'' said Elijah. ''The people of Israel have abandoned your covemmt, destroyed the places of worship, and S murdered yoU!' prophets.

4 GOD wasn't to be fol.lnd in the wind; after the wind an earthquake, but GOD wasn't in the
earthquake; l2and after the earthquake fire, but GOD wasn't in the fire; and after the fire a gentle and quiet whisper. 13When Elijah .heard the quiet voice, he~ muffled his face with his great doak, went to the mouth ofthe cave, and stood there. A quiet voice ;1skcd, "So Elijah, now tell me, what arc you doing here'!" 11Elijah said it again, "I've been worklng my heart out for GOD, the GOD-ofthe·Angel-Armics, because the people oflsrael have abandoned your covenant, destroyed your places of wor!Ship, and murdered your prophets.

Healing for the Healer • Self awareness is vital: Know who you are. • There are self-reflection questions for self-awareness: • Who am I? • Who will love me? • •
What am I here for? What is my path? • Why is there suffering? • Why is there evil? • Is death the end? • How can I serve God? • What gives my life meaning?
•
How well am I able to love others? • What is wrong with me? • Where is God in my suffering?
Self care is important to be a healthy Pastoral Caregiver

The County Catastrophic Emergency Operations Team (CEOT) is being re-activated to lead the way in the efforts to adequately manage a future pandemic flu event.

Pastoral Crisis Intervention: An Overview of Pastoral Crisis Intervention and Debriefing

Pastoral Crisis Intervention There are five gospels of Jesus Christ -Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and you, the Christian. Many will never read the first four. Giosy Smith.
The urgent need for pastoral crisis intervention. Human suffering is universal and pervasive, but healing and recovery is unique; depending on the casualties' faith, mindset, and whether what they do is healthy or unhealthy. Though curing methods, including medication, can bring temporary relief and cure, the healing and wholeness cannot be completely achieved through them. Finding temporary relief from physical, mental and emotional pain is not healing, but anesthetizing. When a crisis appears in one's life, it affects the whole person; one's physical, mental/ social, and spiritual being. The human being cannot be separated from the part of him affected, not even in the healing process. Therefore in the healing and recovery process/ the whole person must be involved. In search for healing, it is not only for the psychological, emotional, and physical cure - but also for relational and spiritual transformation. "Psychological, social and political revolutions have not been able to transform the heart of darkness that lies deep in the breast of every human being. Amid a flood of self fulfillment, there is an epidemic of depression, suicide, personal emptiness, and escapism... So obviously the problem is a spiritual one. And so must be the cure.'' The Spirit of the Discipline; Dallas Willard
(1988).
Therefore, when a person is in a crisis situation, the care of the whole person must be our mission, as it was by the great healer Jesus himself (Luke 4:23). "All praise to the God and Father of our Master, Jesus the Messiah! Father of all mercy! God of all healing counsel! He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us. We have plenty of hard times that come from following the Messiah; but no more so than the good times of his healing

comfort--we get a full measure of that, too." 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 (The Message) There is a great need in our community for spiritual leaders who can thoughtfully bring healing and wholeness to those in crisis. This has become very urgent need because of steady growth in crisis in and around us. The healing ministry is a call from God, and anyone though becoming a healer for the wounded soul, may answer this call. Therefore after you go through this initial training, restudy the material, think, reflect, pray, listen to your self and God. Discover your calling from God. "Give me the power, dear Lord, to speak the truth straightforwardly and yet ~cceptab.!Y, so that they all may be built up in faitn;tiope, and love ... Teach me therefore, sweet Lord, how to restrain the restless, comfort the discouraged, and the weak. Teach me to suit myself to everyone according to t!is n~e, character, and dls.e_osition, according to his power of understanding or lack of it, as time and place require". A praver bv Aelred, the abbot oft/]§_ Rievaulx in Yorkshire, England. Do you have a calling to be a healer in your social and faith community?
Pastoral crisis intervention: psychological and spiritual first aid Definitions: the difference between trauma, crisis, disaster and stress.
A. Trauma: An abnormal event causing shock to whole being of the person; bodily, emotionally, socially and spiritually. B.

Healing connection between psychological and spiritual intervention.
In the healing process, spirituality has been purposely disregarded in the past. However, most of the medical and mental health care institutions are somewhat open minded with involving spirituality in the process of healing. Researches done by the respected educational institution such as Harvard and Duke have proved that spirituality plays a significant role in the healing process. Consequently, we could candidly experience the mental and emotional health care agents by embracing and allowing spirituality to be a part of the healing process. Therefore they recognize the R_rofessional clergies who have trainjng in ~he psychological discipliQf? ~s healing .agents. pastoral car;~~:Sltt ~

are called to be healing agents of God, "The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is upon me, because the LORD has appointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to announce that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed. He has sent me to tell those who mourn that the time of the LORD's favor has come." Isaiah 61:1-2 (New Living Translation) Today the healthcare institution have begun to accept the fact that their customers believe that God created them as a whole person, He did not put together as parts of an unrelated system. "I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well." Psalm 139:14 {New King James Version). The healthcare system has greater awareness that when a person experience difficulty in his body, he also automatically experience distress in his mental, emotional, social and spiritual being. Therefore at the heart of any healing, the Creator of the body has to be part of it. The good news is that Jesus is in the midst of healing and wholeness. Therefore, we as his healing agents have the opportunity to bring His presence into the lives of the people who experience medical, physiological and psychological issues both inc mon rule of spiritual medical and crisis situations. Let us the fi care in the healing ministry ·is the same as medi I and psychological intervention- do no harm...!..and the second is self-car~for the healer. ~t

Genesis 34 {The Message) lOne day Dinah, the daughter Leah had given .Jacob, went to visit some of the women in that country. 2Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite who was chieftain " there, saw her and raped her. H'l'hen he felt a strong attraction to Dinah, ,Jacob's daughter, fell in love with her and wooed her. 4Shecltem went to hi~ father Hamor, "Oct me this girl for my wife." 5Jacob heard that Shechem had raped his daughter Dinah, but his 11ons were out in the fields with the livestock so he didn't say anything until they got home. 6Hamor, Shcchem's father, went to Jacob to work out m:n..-iage arrangements. 7Meanwhile Jacob's sons on their way back from the fields heard what had 1,. happened. They were outraged, explosive with anger. Shechem's rape of Jacob's daughter was intolerable in Israel ~nd not to be put up with. 8Hamor spoke with Jacob and his sons,
"My S<m Shechcm is head over heels in love with your daughter··give her to him as his wife. 9Intermarry with us. Give your daughters to us and we'll give our daughters to you. 10Live together with us as one fnmily. Settle down a~ong us and make your$elves at home. Prosper among us." llShechem then spoke for himself, addressing Dinah's father and brothers: "Please, say yes. l'll p~!J anything. 12Set the bridal price as high as you will--the sky's the limit! Only give me this girl for my wife.''
13Jacoh's sons answered Shechcm and his father with cunning. Their sister, after all, had been raped. 14Thcy said, "1rhi(-l 'is impossible. We could never give our sister io a man who was uncircumcised. Why, we'd be disgraced. 151'he only condition on which we can talk business is if all your men become circumcised like us. 16Then we will freely exchange daughters in marriage and make Oltrselves at home among yo"Q and become one big, happy family. 17llut if this is not nn acceptable condition, we will take (>Ur sister and leave." 18That seemed fair enough t.o Hamor and his son Shechem. 19Thc young man was so smitten with Jaeob's daughter that he proceeded to do what h

hands on it_ So let's do what they ask and hlive them settle down with us." 24Everyone who was anyone in the city agreed with Hamor and his son, Shechem: every male was circumcised_ 25'l'hree days after the dr<:umdsion, while al1 the men were still very sore, two of Jacob's sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each with his sword in hand, walked into the city as if they ow ned tl1e place and murdered every man there. 2b'They also killed Hamor and his son Shechem, rescued Dinah from Shechem'a house, and left. 27When the rest of .Jacob's sons came on the scene of slaughter, they

looted the entire city in retaliation for Dinah's rape_ 28Flocks, herds, donkeys, belongings··everyth.ing, whether in the city or the fie1ds··they took. 29And then they took all the wives and children captive and ransacked their homes for anything valuable. 30Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You've made my name stink to high heaven among the people here, these Canaanites and Peri:t;zites_ Tf they decided to g<mg up on us and attack, as few as we are we wouldn't l'lbtnd a chance; they'd wipe me and my people right off the map." 31They s:~id, "Nobody is going to treat our sister like a whore and get by with it."
God brings healing and wholeness Example 1: Ezekiel 37(The Message) Breath of Life IGOD grabbed me. GOD's Spirit took me up and sat me down in the middle of an open plain strewn with bones. 2He led me around and among them--a lot of bones! There were honea all over the plain--dry bones, bleached by the sun. 3He said to me, "Son of man, can these hones live?" I said, "Master GOD, only you 1 know that." 4He said to me, "Prophesy over these · bones: "Dry bones, listen to the Message of I GOD!"' 5GOD, the Master, told the dry bones, "Watch this: I'm bringing the breath of life to you and you'll come to life_ 61'll attach sinews to you, put meat on your bones,. cover you with skin, :md breathe life into you. You'll come alive and you'll realize that I am GOD!'' 7T prophesied just as I'd been commanded_ As I prophesied, there was a sound and, oh, rustling! The hones moved and came together, bone to bone_ SI kept watching. Sinews formed, then muscles on
the bones, then skin stretched over them. But they had 110 breath in them. 9He said to me, "Prophesy to the breath_ Prophesy, son of man. Tell the breath, "GOD, the Master, says, Come from the four winds. Come, breath_ Breathe on these slain bodies. Breathe life!''' IOSo I prophesied, just as he commanded me. The breath entered them and they came alive! They stood up on their feet, a huge army. ll Then God said to me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of IsraeL I ,istcn to what they'.re saying: "Our bones are dried up, our hope is gone, there's nothing left of us_' 12"Therefore, prophesy. Tell them, "GOD, the Master, says: I'll dig up your graves and bring you out alivc··O mY people! Then I'll take you straight to the land of Israel. 13When I dig up graves and bring you Ol.lt as my people, you'll realize that 1 am GOD_ 141'11 breathe my life into you and yoll'lllive.

The post traumatic disorder and its consequences. Description of Traumatic Incidents, and Victims Reactions "Psychological trauma is an affliction of the powerless. At the moment of trauma, the victim is rendered helpless by overwhelming ·force ... Traumatic events overwhelm the ordinary systems of care that gives people a sense of control, connection and meaning." Trauma and Recovery (1992) p.32.
+
The traumatic event is something extraordinary, not within the range of typical human range of experience.
+
The intensity of the reaction of the traumatic incidents depend on several factors: o severity of the event o persistence of the event o extent of exposure o Interpretation o Meaning
T yplcal reactions
to trauma
Not everyone experiences the same set of responses to trauma, but people typically experience reactions that fall into four basic categories. Here are some reactions that victims may be experiencing: Psychological and Emotional
• Heightened anxiety or fear • Irritability, restlessness, or over excitability • Feelings of sadness, moodiness, more crying than usual • Feelings of helplessness or hopelessness • Feelings of numbness or detachment • "Survivor guilt", or feelings of self-blame that you escaped the tragedy • Re-experiencing of the traumatic event. possibly including: o intrusive thoughts or images of the event o distressing dreams or nightmares o flashbacks about the event o distress when exposed to events that remind the victim of the trauma • Feelings of estrangement or isolation from others

Immediately following traumatic event victims will probably feel disrupted, dazed, and somewhat confused. Victims will not behave as they typically would. It is important to take care of the victims as best we can.

Genesis 3
Crisis:The Fall of Man 1 Now the serpent war; more crafty th;:m any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He .said to the woman, "Did God rea11y say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"
2 The woman said to the serpent, "We may e;tt fruit from the trees i11 the garden, 3 but God did say, 'You must not cat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, ;md you must not touch it, or you will die.'" 4 "You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman. 5 "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good ;md evil."
6 When the woman s;:~w that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, ;md also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with ., her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves 0 ''together and made coverings for themselves. 8 Then the man and his wife heard the smmd of the LORD God he was walking in the garden in the (:001 of the day, and '-· they hld from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the LORD God called to the man, "Where are you'?"
as
.J 10 He answered, "1 heard you in the (. garden, and 1 was afraid because I was naked; so I hid."
11 And he said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have yotl eaten from the tree that I comm;mdcd you not to eat from?"
t
12 The man said, "The woman you put here with me-she gave me some fruit from the tree, and 1 ate it."
1:~ Then the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived ~ me, and I ate."
14 So the LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, "Cursed are you ;ibovc all the livestock and all the wild animals! You will crawl on your belly ;~nd you will eat dust all the days of your
life. 15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring 1111 and hers; he will crush I~J your head, and you will strike his heel." 16 'fo the woman he said, "I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you." 17 To Adam he said, "Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, 'You must not eat of it,' "Cursed is the gronnd because of you; through painful t.oil you will eat c)f it all the days of your life.
18lt will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field . 19 By the sweat of your brow you will eat your {Q(Jd tmtil you return to the ground, since from it you were tHken; for dust you arc and to du$t you will return." 20 Adam fel named his wife Eve, 1M because she would become the mot.her of all the living.

Spiritual trauma in the traumatic experience:
1. Loss of meaning 2. 3. 4. 5.
Loss of innocence Feelings of shame and doubt Denial and secrecy Physical and emotional symptoms: Anger, guilt, fear, grief and sorrow.
6. Death Two big p.rinciples in the healing process:
1. Confession 2. Forgiveness EXAMPLE: Psalm 77 (The Message) 1 I yell out to my God, I yell with all my might, Tyell at the top of my lungs. He listens. 21 found myself in tr(JUhlc and ""'went looking for my L:n·d; my life was an open wound that wouldn't heaL Wben friends said, "Everything will turn out all right," I didn't believe a word they said. 3! God--and shake my head. I bow my head--then wring my hands. 1l'm awake all night~-not a wink of sleep; I can't even say what's bothering me. 51 go over the days one by one, I ponder the years gone by. 6I strum my lute all through the night, wondering how to get my life together. 7Will the Lord walk off and leave us fot good? Will he never smile again? 8Is his love worn threadbare'? Has his salvation promise burned out? 9Has God forgotten his manners? Has he angrily :-~talked off and left us?
lO"Just my luck," 1 said. ''The High God goes out of business just the moment I need him." llOnce again I'll go over what GOD has J done, lay out on the table the ancient wonders; 121'11 ponder all the things you've accompli.shed, and give a long, loving look at your acts. lHO God! Your way is holy! No god is great like God! 11You're the God who makes things happen; you showed everyone what you can do-- 15You pulled your people out of the worst kind of trouble, rescued the children of Jacob and Joseph. l60eea11 saw you in action, God, saw you and trembled with fear; Deep Ocean was scared to death. 17Clouds belched buckets of rain, Sky exploded with thunder, your arrows flashing this way and that. lSFrom Whirlwind came yo\u thundering v(Jice, Lightning expoS(ld the world, Earth reeled ;md rocked.

Things to in healthy pastoral intervention Listening to the victims is the most central in the ministry of presence when we are involved in crisis and non-crisis intervention.
But I don't know what to say! Exodus 4:10-12 10 Moses said to the LORD, "0 Lord~ I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of 8peech and tongue." 11 The LORD said to him, "Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the LORD ? 12 Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say."
Victims are in need of your C.A.LL. • Comfort and Comion • A warm touch • Listening ears • Lifting their spirits
Healthv Statements that could be used in your listening; 1. I am so sorry this happened to you 2. I am so sorry 3. It is harder than most people think 4. I will try my best to listen, please tell me 5. It is OK to cry 6. I am so sorry, it must be very painful Unhealthy Statements that should not be used in listening: 1. I know how you feel 2. Time will heal all wounds 3. I understand

4. You will get over it 5. I know what you mean
Unhealthy God talk- Must be avoided 1. It must be his time/her time 2. Someday you will understand why
3. It was actually a blessings because 4. God must have needed him/her more than you 5. God never gives us more than we can handle
Do's and Don'ts of Listening Do's: Healthy to practice 1. Try to maintain eye . 2. Let the victim set his or her own pace. 3. Listen to the verbal and non-verba1 messages. {Words 7%- Tone of Voice

4. Be aware of your own verbal and non-verbal messages. 5. Try to give full attention. 6. Ask question to clarify.
Don'ts: Beware, these are not healthy to do 1. Don't look around and get distract. 2. Don't interrupt the victims when talking. 3. Don't finish their statements. 4. Donit talk excessively about yourself. 5. Don't pretend as you know all. 6. Don't look horrified when listening. 7. Don't prepare to leave while listening. 8. Don't make hasty judgments-interpretation.
~Healing scripture and prayer in the pastoral crisis intervention During a time of crisis people do go through a "crisis of their faith." Sometime quick mention of God and scripture may: not be helpful. As we all know the ~criptur~ has been used to oppress. dominate an,p at the same tjme far healing and reconciliation~ renewing of relationship with God and people. If the pastor senses it is appropriate to use scripture and prayer, it must carefully done for healing of the victims not to uphold pastoral authorit¥,.

Sometimes the Pastors find the story of Job as a convenient age to refer to show ultimate reward for suffering. Let us not forget the age gives a picture that God allows pain or inflicting pain as a test of faith. So this age may not be the one to lift the spirit and bring hope of healing.
-Healing is pOssible by patience, persiStence I [·------and P!.~yer. __ _ Some of the scripture that may be helpful are: Psalm 9:9 (New International Version) The LORD is a refuge tor the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Psal.rn l3:2 (New International Version) How long must I wrestle with my thought'> and every day have sorrow in
my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me? Psalm 28:1, 2, 6 & 7 (New International Version) 1 To you I call, 0 LORD my Rock; do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if y\>U remain silent, I will be like those who have gone down to the pit. 2 Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you tor help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place. 6 Praise be to the LORD, for he has heard my cry for mercy. 7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts ln him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. Psalm 30:1-3 (New International Version)
Twill exalt you, 0 LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me. 0 LORD my God, I called to you fhr help and you healed me. 0 LORD, you brought me up from the grave you spared me from going down into the pit Psalm 103:1.0 (New International Version) He does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.

ffi1J. Isaiah 44:22 (New International Version) I have swept away your oilenses like a cloud, your sins like the morning mist. Return to me, for 1 have redeemed you. •• Isaiah 43:25 (New International Version) "I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and re your sins no more.

Healing for the Healer • Self awareness is vital: Know who you are. • There are self-reflection questions for self-awareness: • Who am I? • Who will love me? • •
What am I here for? What is my path? • Why is there suffering? • Why is there evil? • Is death the end? • How can I serve God? • What gives my life meaning?
•
How well am I able to love others? • What is wrong with me? • Where is God in my suffering?
