There are studies that are coming out in terms of how to integrate this ethically and very carefully and kind of how to navigate this, and, you know, when to discern when to refer out. So, even though social workers don’t have to share a faith tradition with their clients, or have any faith tradition at all, I still have questions about the role of religion and spirituality in social work.

I would note that what we have found in the data is that there are two predictors of social workers’ views and behaviors around considering clients’ faith. Comparing Rawlsian Justice and the Capabilities Approach to Justice from a Spiritually Journal of Religion and Spirituality in Social Work To be able to sit with the discomfort that may arise if a client doesn't believe the same thing you do but yet ethically you may need to still sit there and hold that space for them and to navigate that, and working with a strong supervisor to help partner with you to determine, okay, is it at a point where I need to refer out?

But, I was wondering if you could talk about how you use this podcast to bring together mental health professionals and religious leaders, how you see the CXMH podcast as a resource for social workers, and even if there have been any conversations that you've had that have really sort of stuck in your mind that you've had in them. 28, Controversial Issues in Religion, Spirituality, and Social Work, pp. Definitions act as conceptual controls but “the spirit bloweth where it listeth”. 1989 (Canda, 2005; Gray, 2008; Mosher, 2010).

The ritual of celebrating Shabbat had little to do with religion. And I know that in my work with suicide and schools, that particularly when we talk about how school staff members can help to negotiate the processing of grief and loss after someone dies by suicide, the conversation inevitably and rightly so includes faith communities because somebody once told me, I don't know if this is true, but, you know, that there's this kind of hypothesis that faith started because of people trying to explain and understand death, right? (2005). You may not have gotten training in it; that doesn't mean that you avoid it completely. Canda thinks of spirituality as “the universal aspect of human existence and a search for meaning and purpose, fulfilling relations and connections between other people and myself. This is one designed to form a privileged intellectual persona — that of the supra-civil deconstructive theorist — cultivated through the hyperbolic problematisation of positive disciplines, in this case jurisprudence. 43:55 Jonathan Singer: Yeah, of course. 37:20 Jonathan Singer: I think that's a really great use of a podcast and I think that, you know, in academia we call that social scholarship, right, it is the use of social media, the use of social channels, to not just to share findings from the academy with others, but also to have a dialogue with folks which then changes how we go about answering the kinds of questions we answer. 43:51 Holly Oxhandler: Thank you, thank you for noting that; I appreciate it.

Spanish There's a lot of topics and areas in our profession where we don't get specific training in, but we're really still called to pay attention to these diverse areas of our clients’ lives, and so, and especially knowing that about 80% of U.S. adults say that their religion is at least somewhat or very important to them, we cannot avoid this topic, and we know that clients say that they want the therapist to be the one to bring it up because of it being taboo, so I want to start by asking social workers to just not be afraid, but to read about this, perhaps, before jumping right into it, like maybe read some books.
