God’s Word is skillfully woven into the material lending the note of God’s authority. “Sixteen Sessions with the WONDERFUL COUNSELOR” is a good book to give to counselees and a great book in helping to train lay people.” -Walt Croom, Ph.D, General Director of Military Evangelism, Inc. “In “Sixteen Sessions with the WONDERFUL COUNSELOR” Dan Peters wastes no words as he mines from the wealth of Scripture the wisdom and ways of our God in applying His truth to a variety of real-life situations. Great value is found in the stimulating questions at the end of each chapter and then even greater value is discovered in his wise answers in the back of the book. This is a concise and sharp tool in equipping one another to aid others in their battle with sin and its difficult effects.” -David A. Jones - Pastor of Campbell Memorial Baptist Church in WV. “This book isn’t another self-help book based upon pop psychology. Dan Peters has gleaned some wonderful insights from the Bible on how God himself counseled people. This is a wonderful tool to get to know God better and how to counsel others in these same areas. As an expositor of the Bible and a biblical counselor that I’ve respected over the years, Dan consistently allows the text of Scripture to speak for itself rather than reading into it. This book is a wonderful tool to train future pastors. This is a must read for pastors, counselors and small group members.” -Rick Leineweber, Pastor of Small Groups at Atlantic Shores Baptist Church and Head Consultant for BiblicalDisciplemaking.NET “I read your book and think it is fantastic. Your simple, Bible-based approach to life’s most tangled issues is both inspiring and refreshing in an age that promotes the wisdom of man. -Dr. David Nelson, President, Founder & Executive Director at Crossing Cultures International.

Download or read book The Wonderful Counselor Model written by Samuel Elkins Ph.D. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2024-08-19 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wonderful Counselor model utilizes the narrative of Jesus and the woman at the well to introduce four steps adapted from the research of Larry Crabb for helping guide those struggling with mental health issues. This includes redeeming methods described in Guy Brewer’s METAMORPH Grid to deal with the rejection, misunderstanding, and, misapplication of God’s truth. The model utilizes the attributes of God’s omniscience in helping care seekers understand who they are, His omnipresence in dealing with where they are in their spiritual journey, and His omnipotence in helping solve the problems encountered on this spiritual journey. Four themes described in the research of David Entwistle have been tailored to a conceptual framework called the Structure of Biblical Change from the research of David Powlison and the synthesis of the six stages of change from the research of Prochaska and Norcross to explain the goals, functions, roles of the caregiver in this model.
