The article employs the concept of potential space as describing central characteristics of pastoral-care interaction. Attention is given to continuities with the pastoral care movement (J. Scharfenberg). The new "Handbuch zum Evangelischen Pastorale" shows how creatively Christian tradition can be employed in the potential space of pastoral care. Semiotic approaches to texts as well as rituals lead beyond former controversies in the debate about pastoral care.
