There is a need for Christian Counseling that will be effective,
practical, and Biblical. This short and concise guide was written
with the intent to help ministers, and Christian workers have an
introductory background in the field of Christian Counseling. The
goal of this Handbook is to cover in one broad stroke, some of the
main issues and topics that are relevant to the field of Christian
Counseling. The need for Christian Counseling is greater than it
has ever been in the history of the Church of Jesus Christ. There
is a need, therefore, for Christians to become equipped as leaders
to serve in the body of Christ. WHAT IS CHRISTIAN COUNSELING?
Counseling attempts to provide encouragement and guidance for those
who are facing loses, decisions, or disappointments. Counseling can
stimulate personality growth and development; help people cope more
effectively with the problems of living with inner conflict, and
with crippling emotions; assists individuals, family members, and
married couples resolve interpersonal tensions or relate
effectively to one another; and assist persons whose life patterns
are self-defeating and causing unhappiness. The Christian Counselor
seeks to bring people into a personal relationship with Jesus
Christ and to help them find forgiveness and relief from the
crippling effects of sin and guilt. Ultimately, the Christian hopes
to help others become disciples of Christ and a discipler of
others. Christian Counseling, then, attempts to help people solve
their problems in areas of their lives that they are not competent
to deal with. The Christian Counselor seeks to bring people into a
relationship with Jesus Christ. This guide will examine the nature
of Christian Counseling, Psychology and Counseling, Nouthetic
Counseling, Crises Counseling, Marriage Counseling, Psychotherapy
and Counseling, and Christian Psychiatry. In addition to this, the
author has included an Appendix section which will deal with the
following topics: Counseling the Homosexual; The Problem with
Modern Psychology and Why it Doesn't Work, and Demon Possession:
"The Devil Made Me Do it Syndrome." This concise guide and
introduction to Christian Counseling is a MUST READ for every
believer, Christian Worker, Minister, Pastor, and Leader in the
body of Christ.
