“This book fills a long-recognized need for a comprehensive introductory biblical counseling textbook. The authors address counseling theory and methodology and then apply biblical principles to a wide range of important topics. They aspire to be biblical, careful, and balanced. When space does not allow them to deal exhaustively with many of the subjects they raise, they point the reader to specialized resources which address issues in greater depth. This is an important book which will be valuable both in the classroom as a textbook and in the counselor’s office as a reference.” James R. Newheiser Jr, director, Christian counseling program, and associate professor of Christian counseling and pastoral theology, Reformed Theological Seminary, Charlotte
