Biblical Counseling Basics

Image
A Divine Call to Counsel A new comprehensive textbook explores all aspects of  biblical counseling. As people of the world today  seek to understand more about themselves, their  struggles, and their emotional makeup, there are  many competing voices seeking to answer those  questions. And as secular psychology continues to  make strides in narrowing all mental and  psychological maladies into biological pathologies,  there is less and less room left for Christians  looking for counseling centered in biblical teaching. A new comprehensive textbook, Biblical Counseling Basics (New Growth Press, 2018) offers  the Bible as the preeminent resource to address even the most complex mental and  emotional struggles. Author Jeremy Lelek , Phd, explores all aspects of biblical counseling,  beginning by retracing the movement’s history, then outlining its basic tenets, and finally  providing helpful insight for the future of...

Busy weekend thus far

I wasn't able to bring you a post yesterday because I left the house early yesterday to be in Ft. Worth by 8:30 AM for the Association of Biblical Counselors conference, and I didn't get home until 11:00 PM. The conference started back up at 8:00 AM today, so it was another early morning. I'm soooo sleepy right now! ABC does great work to "Encourage, Equip and Empower all believers everywhere to live and counsel the Word." The main speaker was Paul Tripp, discussing "A Quest for More." The conference went very well, and I was able to attend some of the breakout sessions with other speakers between helping out at the ABC booth and taking pictures for them. Check out their website ( http://www.christiancounseling.com/ ) for more information about who they are and what they do. More photos will be posted there soon.
