Drugs and Pastoral Care [Paperback] Leech, Kenneth

**Drugs and Pastoral Care** by Kenneth Leech isn't your typical self-help fluff – this is the real deal for anyone working on the frontlines of addiction and spiritual care. Leech, a respected Anglican priest and social theologian, tackles the messy intersection of drug addiction and pastoral ministry with refreshing honesty and practical wisdom.

This paperback dives deep into how religious communities can actually help (rather than judge) people struggling with substance abuse. From understanding addiction's complexities to developing meaningful pastoral responses, Leech bridges theology and street-level reality beautifully. Perfect for clergy, counselors, social workers, theology students, and anyone whose faith journey intersects with addiction – whether personally or professionally.

This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks has stories to tell and wisdom to share at a fraction of the original price.

*"Finally, a book that doesn't preach at you about addiction but actually offers genuine pastoral insight."*

*"Leech writes with compassion and intelligence – essential reading for modern ministry."*
