Spiritual Needs of Older Adults with Secular Beliefs: A Webinar for Spiritual Care Providers and Interested Others!
Tuesday, March 1st, 2022 6:30-8pm EST (Wednesday, March 2nd at 10:30 am Australia time)
To be human is to have a spiritual dimension, regardless of beliefs. Those with secular and humanistic beliefs still have spiritual needs even if they may not articulate them or use that language. Often people with secular beliefs are considered ‘aspiritual’. They can also resist spiritual support believing it comes with a religious agenda or proselytization. It is important to understand the spiritual needs of those with secular beliefs and be able to offer spiritual support in a way that is helpful to those individuals.
