Full Issue Salubritas 1 (2021)

The publication of the inaugural issue of Salubritas is the culmination of a vision given to the faculty of the counseling program in the Graduate School of Theology and Ministry at Oral Roberts University over 20 years ago.We envisioned an academic journal that would provide theoretical and research articles, book reviews, and other resources for Spirit-centered counselors.This vision grew out of an awareness that at the time the journal was envisioned there were few resources of benefit to Spirit-centered counselors.We thought that identifying a clearly articulated pneumatology, together with a twenty-first-century theological anthropology, and sound counseling methodologies would be of great benefit to counselors who wanted truly to integrate their Spirit-infused faith with their counseling practice.What we have learned is there are pneumatologies, anthropologies, and counseling methodologies in use by Spirit-centered counselors around the world, all of which have been beneficial for us.We have learned so much in this reciprocal process and continue to learn as the Spirit directs our interests and activities.We thus must acknowledge the existence of significant diversity in experiences with the Spirit.In a recent editorial of our sister journal, Spiritus, Editor Jeff Lamp described the diversity in the Spirit-empowered world, referencing his mentor's term "Pentecostalisms" and even suggesting the utility of diverse applications and interpretations of the Spirit-empowered Movement to current issues.Spirit-centered counselors also have many voices that collectively inform and advance the field of counseling.Some from a Christian tradition may refer to activity within THE SPiriT, CHaNGE,
