A Scripture-based framework for Christian counseling

Jay E. Adams lays out a counseling approach grounded in Scripture, with 2 Timothy 3:14–17 identified as a key passage. The book concentrates on how change is approached through counseling and how biblical principles inform the counselor’s method. It also addresses the relationship between theology and psychology in Christian counseling, and considers what steps to take at different stages of the process. The emphasis is practical and structural: Adams presents a method for counseling and explains the scriptural basis he uses to shape it.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Christian counselors interested in a Scripture-based approach to counseling.
  • Readers exploring the relationship between theology and psychology in Christian counseling.
  • Pastors and students studying counseling within a Christian ministry context.

Book overview

Change is the essential goal of the counseling process. How can a Christian counselor facilitate such change? The answer, of course, may be found in Scripture, specifically in 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

Professor, pastor, and well-known counselor Jay E. Adams bases his whole approach on Scripture. This book provides an unparalleled opportunity to see how he discovers and applies biblical principles as well as the way in which Scripture functions as the basis for his counseling approach.

In How to Help People Change, this book answers two questions:

  • "How does a counselor help people change?"
  • "How does Scripture provide the source of a counselor's method?"

 

This book has much to say about the ongoing discussion of the relationship between theology and psychology in the enterprise of Christian counseling. Jay presents a fresh perspective not only on how to counsel, but also on what measures to take at what stages of counseling.

While touching on many aspects of counseling, How to Help People Change is specifically designed to elucidate the process of counseling.
