  Christian Counselors Manual

  $24.99

  The Christian Counselor’s Manual is a companion and sequel to Dr. Jay Adams’ influential Competent to Counsel, which first laid out a vision of “nouthetic” counseling–a strictly biblical approach to behavioral counseling and therapy.

  This practical guide takes the approach of nouthetic counseling introduced in the earlier volume and applies it to a wide range of issues, topics, and techniques in counseling, including:

  *Who is qualified to be a counselor?
  *How can counselees change?
  *How does the Holy Spirit work?
  *What role does hope play in therapy?
  *What is the function of language in a counseling session?
  *How do we ask the right questions?
  *What often lies behind depression?
  *How do we deal with anger?
  *What is schizophrenia?

  These and hundreds more questions are answered and explained from a biblical perspective in this comprehensive resource.

  A full set of indexes, a detailed table of contents, and a full complement of diagrams and forms make this a classic reference book for biblical counseling.

  Theology Of Christian Counseling

  $26.99

  A Theology of Christian Counseling is a book that connects biblical doctrine with practical living. Salvation, that central concern of Protestant theology, is often too narrowly defined. It is thought to be “being saved from the consequences of sin.” But God is doing much more. He is making something new out of the old sinful nature. He is, in Christ, making new creatures. “No counseling system that is based on some other foundation can begin to offer what Christian counseling offers . . . No matter what the problem is, no matter how greatly sin has abounded, the Christian counselor’s stance is struck by the far-more-abounding nature of the grace of Jesus Christ in redemption. What a difference this makes in counseling!” In this book the reader will gain an insight into the rich theological framework that supports and directs a biblical approach to counseling. And the connection between solid theology and practical application will become compelling. This is a one-of-a-kind. Don’t ignore it!
