- Summary:
- "The Covid pandemic caused both horrific loss of life and tremendous psychological uncertainty and stress, with diagnoses of anxiety and mental illness at much higher levels than in 2019. For believers, the pandemic raised obvious questions about the nature of God and increased the need for both material and spiritual pastoral care. At the same time, religious traditions also offered resources for making sense of such deep disruption. This volume presents twelve reflections on the pandemic and its impact from Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, non-believing, and Christian traditions. The chapters offer scholarly insight and rigor; but they also contain personal reflections on what it means to work through such a life-changing event and to make meaning in a moment when life confronts us as so clearly partial, fragmented, and fragile"-- Provided by publisher.
