This work is a plea for authentic, "naked" (vulnerable), human(e) relational engagement-specifically within the context of psychotherapy, but also within the context of church life and ministry, and in human life and society in general. Conversely, failures to connect relationally may be seen as a source of individual and collective pathology, while deeper forms of connection are understood as a means of ameliorating or healing this breach. I make this argument with a particular eye toward the deterioration of relational connectivity in American society, writ large, as a consequence of the growth of impersonal transactional bureaucracies, overuse of technology as an inadequate substitute for relational connection, personal insecurity and fear of the other resulting in loss of community life, and the isolation imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. I critique the ways in which "transactional" modalities of human engagement have come to displace and replace "relational" means of the same. Informed by my own personal and professional experiences, as well as my reading of Lutheran theology and psychoanalytic theory, this work traces both problems and solutions through the respective domains of dyadic helping work, education, systems of mental health care, economics, and public life. It also serves as a call to return to such deep, authentic, and meaningful engagement to bring about individual healing of mind and spirit, and perhaps even body as well. It proposes the same means as a path toward broader social, cultural, and political healing within the American society and wider world of which we are all a part.
