Lectures on counseling

Jay Adams is well-known for his ministry of equipping Christians to counsel other believers who are in need. He has influenced thousands of pastoral and lay counselors through his many books on counseling, including his classic, Competent to Counsel. In this volume, five of Adams's key lectures on counseling have been brought together. In these lectures the reader will discover not only practical information about the counseling process itself but also a theological orientation to the task, a method for interpreting and applying scripture to counseling situations, and a critique of trends and assumptions that dominate counseling today. - Back cover.
