Download or read book Qualifications Skills and Theological Foundations for Lay Counselors in Local Church written by Hye Sook Chung and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-09 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contents in this book were submitted for Ph.D dissertation at Trinity Theological Seminary. I have worked on this book, considering lay counselor training in local church. Lots of materials in this book come from Biblical Counseling Center, one of national biblical counseling organizations, located in Arlington Heights, IL. I analyzed and systematized the data from Christian counseling perspective, and suggested the 21st ideal model of lay counselor, rooted in biblical and contemporary adaptive lens. Compared to traditional conservative counseling, this approach has a broader perspective, focused on the work of the Holy Spirit and psychological knowledge based on General Revelation, one of God's revelations. In the past, the conservative party has emphasized the word of God only, but the Word of God works together with the illumination of the Holy Spirit (John 16:13). In addition, psychology is helpful to understand human needs and problems. The crucial issue here is not whether we use the psychology, but how we use psychology in the light and authority of the Word of God.

Book excerpt: You aren't a licensed marriage and family therapist. You didn't do a doctoral dissertation on pastoral counseling. You're simply God's person caring for God's people in the local church. And the marriages in your church need help. Many pastors feel ill-equipped to handle the challenges that arise when a couple is going through marital difficulties. They feel lost and inadequate. What do you say? What counsel do you offer? Should I say anything or just listen? Do I schedule a follow-up appointment? Do I ask questions? What questions? If you are or have been in this situation before, this book offers you a practical guide to get started with the first sessions and then offers specific guidance on nine of the most common topics that come up in marriage counseling. Author and pastor Jonathan Holmes offers a solid, biblical theology and methodology to help you navigate through the world of marriage counseling with the fundamental conviction that God's word is powerful enough to address the deepest of marital issues, and robust enough to handle whatever might come your way. In each chapter, you'll meet a new couple dealing with a different issue, much like the people in your church, office, and neighborhood. Through the book you'll also hear advice from several respected voices in the biblical counseling community. Whether you're a novice or already knowledgeable, Counsel for Couples provides theologically sound and biblically practical tools to help you as you help couples in need.
