Describes the Drama Triangle of Victim-Persecutor-Rescuer conceptual model and suggests helpful ways to use it in order to understand and intervene in the difficult situations often encountered by pastors, pastoral counselors, and chaplains. Attempts to join this conceptual model to a theological understanding of persons to deepen self-examination, ground pastoral identity, and enhance pastoral competence.
