Basic Principles of Biblical Counseling

Larry Crabb Originally published by Zondervan in 1975, this first of Dr Crabbs books on Christian counseling responds to the prevailing humanism inthe field of counseling by formulating a genuinely and uniquely Christianapproach. Crabb introduces his model for biblical counseling in an engaging, lucid style, asserting that The local church should and can successfully assume responsibility within its ranks for restoring troubled people to full, productive, creative lives. 111 pages.

With compassion and urgency, this book makes a plea for parishioners to engage in "grappling soul to soul with troubled lives." It looks toward a method of counseling which neither overlooks sin nor is reduced to a simplistic model of confrontation and exhortation.Read less
