The Rev. Dr. Raymond Lawrence, Jr. is the General Secretary of the College of Pastoral Supervision and Psychotherapy (CPSP). The video is his 2007 Report to the CPSP Community during the Plenary held in Raleigh, NC.
Dr. Lawrence's new book, Sexual Liberation: The Scandal of Christendom, has recently been published.
Lawrence has been an Episcopal minister for almost half a century. Most of his career was spent training the next generation of ministers in the art and science of pastoral care and counseling. His most recent teaching position was as Director of Pastoral Care at New York Presbyterian Hospital, Columbia University, a position he held for fifteen years. Previously he held positions at St Luke's Episcopal Hospital, Houston, St. Joseph's Hospital, Houston, and New York Methodist Hospital. He has published widely in scholarly journals, and his opinion pieces on religion, ethics, and social values have appeared in most major newspapers in the U.S. His previous book, The Poisoning of Eros: Sexual Values in Conflict, was published in 1989, and was the winner of the 1990 Book Award at the World Congress on Sexuality in Caracas, Venezuela.
