事工實踐助理教授
宋博士的研究探討心理困擾、信仰與社會正義之間的交集——特別是宗教與靈性如何能協助具有不同心理困擾生活經驗的個人，實現康復、賦權與解放。.
His doctoral dissertation, Pastors on Pendulums: An Anti-Sanist and Dialectical Pastoral Theological Reflection on Caring for Individuals with Schizophrenia in the Korean Church, critically examines the dilemmas pastors face when offering spiritual care to individuals living with schizophrenia. It proposes dialectical and creative approaches to foster more compassionate, practical, and just spiritual care within faith communities.
An ordained elder in the Korean Methodist Church, Dr. Song has served in various congregations and received clinical training in healthcare and counseling settings. Deeply invested in supporting the emotional and mental wellness of faith communities, he is committed to fostering spaces where people living with mental distress can shape holistic understandings of self and experience—beyond cultural and religious stigma, and beyond medical, Global North perspectives.
