Beskrivelse
Spiritual counsel is always concerned above all else with faith - nurturing, strengthening, establishing, practicing faith - and the Word of God occupies a central place. Such is biblical worldview counseling. It addresses the emotional and spiritual dimensions of every client. The concepts of human nature, life struggles, health, and treatment modality in psychology span a broad spectrum. Those who practice biblical worldview counseling do so with an integrated philosophical origin. Counselors often adopt certain psychological theories in part, but they do not embrace any underlying philosophies that deny God or biblical truths. Well trained Christian counselors are able to integrate their faith with their education, remaining faithful to biblical standards while availing themselves of the science of psychology. Creating an effective counseling ministry is the church establishing a relationship with its members and community that conveys the message of hope and healing in Christ. Having a professionally trained counseling staff in the church brings benefit to the pastoral staff, not the least of which is a deep level of trust and confidence that challenging situations are being addressed in an effective and spiritual way. This manual will help a church of any size create an effective new ministry whose purpose is to strengthen the body of Christ whose members are suffering or struggling with emotional and spiritual issues that go beyond the constraints of pastoral care. Your church is one step closer to having a new and effectual ministry that will bring the hope and healing of Jesus Christ to those who are hurting; setting free the captives, and bring healing to the brokenhearted.
