5.0 out of 5 stars Christian Counseling - a good book, 6 Nov 2003
By A Customer
This book gives excellent practical advice enabling councillors to help people with all kinds of problems. Each issue has a chapter devoted to it and normally there is a section on how, by pre-emptive action, the problem may in some cases be avoided. While I found all of the problems areas discussed enlightening, the chapters covering the personal issues of anxiety, loneliness, depression, anger and guilt are particularly likely to be of use in any counselling situation. The chapters on homosexuality, choosing a marriage partner and vocational counselling issues were also very good and areas that other authors have often failed to cover in the same depth.

Collins attempts to take a Biblical perspective on issues and frequently refers to the Scriptures. His stance is Evangelical and tends to be middle of the road to strongly conservative. There is a set of materials made up of forty audiotapes, a counsellor's manual and worksheets for counselees which could be purchased with this book and I cannot comment on these. However, the book stands well on its own and is brilliant for the amount of interesting material it contains. This book is a very useful tool for Christian counsellors, ministers and those involved in pastoral care.
