Synopsis "Critical Stages of Biblical Counseling: Gettings Started, Breaking Through, Finishing Well"
This book is a trilogy in which Dr. Adams leads both the novice and experienced counselor through the three key counseling sessions (or stages) which are common to the entire counseling process.Getting Started: The First SessionWhat you do in the first session will set the tone for what follows--for good or for ill. If done well, it will help the counselee to gain confidence in your minister to him and, more importantly, in the Word of God and the God of the Word.Breaking Through: The Turning PointThe turning point in counseling sessions is that point at which the counselor sees the beginning of appreciable, observable change--a change of knowledge, of understanding, of determination, of conviction, or of commitment. A turning point is crucial because true Christian change--of the sort that pleases God--always involves a closer approximation of the thoughts and life of the counselee to the "ways" of God presented in the Scriptures.Finishing Well: TerminationThis final section concerns those basic issues that have to do with closing out a series of counseling sessions--how to know when, how to do it, and how to follow up.
