Description:
Is it possible for today's pastor to provide competent counseling to the members of his flock? Should counseling be left to psychologists, psychotherapists, and secular counselors? What should be the primary source of information for the pastor who attempts to counsel? Should the Bible be used in the counseling room? These questions and more are answered by Dr. Paige Patterson in this book. God's Word is sufficient! Pastors must reclaim their role of offering Biblical Counsel to the members of their flock. Every pastor should read this volume. Every believer should read this book as well. Now is the time for the church to recapture its role of Biblical Counseling.
