A guide for the soon to be married, or the newly married. If you are either, or you know someone who is, this book will make a great and useful gift, and will be a valuable resource when the tough questions within marriage come along.(An excerpt from the book)------Mistakes can be made right, and God is more than willing to forgive and allow for fresh starts. He takes us from where we are right now. It is the rest of your life that counts both for Him and for the one God has given us as helpmate.Some couples, or individual partners within a couple we engage with in marriage mentoring or counseling are on their second or perhaps marriage.Mistakes almost always result in shame, doubt, and even damage to an individual's sense of self-worth. And, they can create doubts about the hope of success of a new marriage."I failed at marriage before. What makes me think this one will fare any better?"Now how would you answer this question? "Suppose I meet someone and fall in love, and we marry. Then later I meet someone who I find myself loving and I'm convinced that this one was really the right one for me."Did I make a mistake with the first one? Perhaps he (or she) was not the right one for me."------The book is not only for couples soon to be married, or just newly married, but for pastors and other marriage ministers, this book can be a source of material for pre-marriage counseling, or as we might as well say, pre-marriage preparation.Available in both paperback and ebook form.

Wilt Thou Be Made Whole? is a self-empowerment, spiritual yet therapeutic book that challenges the individual to self-examine the root cause for the way they respond to the many challenges that life presents for one to grow from. The reader is engaged to evaluate their attachment to nonproductive behavior in lieu of stepping back and reviewing their initial response to a more engaging and empowering outcome.

Carl Rogers convinced a generation of counselors to listen and reflect while insisting that teaching is taboo. Though Rogerianism failed and is now largely passé, many counselors still hesitate to teach their counselees.Jay Adams shows not only that God obligates Christian counselors to teach, but how they may do so in ways that will help counselees both learn and "observe" those things that Christ "commanded" according to Matthew 28:20. He demonstrates clearly, using illustrations that will resonate with you, that effective biblical counseling requires teaching. This book, the only one of its kind, is must reading for every serious Biblical Counselor.

Christians experience significant gaps between what we believe about God and what we encounter from God. Sometimes our best efforts keep us stuck in the gap. In The Expectation Gap, systems theorist Steve Cuss offers a unique window into how we can quiet the inner critic, wrangle chronic anxiety, and relax into God's presence.

The place of counselling in the church and fellowship groups, subtitled, Peo- ples'-Helper or one that cares. The church and fellowship groups must accept the responsibility for helping people with problems. By this, we allow the love of Christ to flow out of us to others. This demonstrates practical, sacrificial concern as the bible teaches in (1Thess.5:14), we read: "Dear brothers, warn those who are lazy: comfort those who are frightened, take tender care of those who are weak; and be patient with every one". (T.L.B) in Rom. 12:15; Paul said we should rejoice with those that rejoice, and weep with them that weep. In counselling, we are called to be sensitive to each other's need and wherever it is necessary, reach out to help. Many times when we talk about help, our mind goes to financial help and we become scared, but there are timely advices or counselling that is worth more than money. "Where there is no counsel, the people will fall: but in the multitude of counsel- lors, there is safety". (Prov. 11:14); Without counsel purposes are disappointed, but in the multitude of counselors they are established. (Prov. 15:22) Every one enjoys giving God advice, and how wonderful it is to be able to say the right thing at the right time (Prov. 15:23) TLB. Timely advice is as lovely as Gold apples in a silver basket. (Prov. 25:11.TLB) People have been saved from committing suicide through counselling. Today in the church and fellowships, many are very self-centered, that many come to fellowship with us with their burdens (heavy hearts) and go back home with dis- appointments. In every true worship center, the needs of people are supposed to be met. If the church creates room for such people in counselling, so many sick mar- riages and broken hearts will receive their healings A good counsellor does not just sympathize with his counselee but em- pathizes with them.

The Practical School of the Holy Spirit - Part 6 of 8, Get Secrets of raising the spiritually dead, counsel victims and oppressors in domestic, child or sexual abuse and abortion with ease What is my motivation for writing this book and why would you want to read it? As we engage the marketplace as ambassadors of Christ - 2 Corinthians 5:21, never before has there been a need to be led by the Spirit of God than it is now. As we race towards the end, activities in the realm of the spirit continue to be heightened because the destiny of the human race hangs in the balance. Our ministry of reconciliation cannot be done on human wisdom, intellect, tactics or strategy devoid of the power and the working of the Holy Spirit. As Christians, we should realize that we are spirit with a mind using our bodies as containers to execute. As Christians, our spirit has joined with the Spirit of God at conversion. To be motivated in body, we have to first be motivated in our spirit. The Spirit then communicates to our spirit and this to our minds and our minds instructs our body to take action based on the instruction sent to us by God's Spirit in us. But for lack of understanding and knowledge of the working and ways of the Holy Spirit, some of us have either ignored or grieved the Holy Spirit. As a result, our sensitivity to Him has died or He has chosen not to lead us any longer. This series on the school of the Holy Spirit will help heighten our sensitivity and working with our best friend who is ready and willing to help us be all that God has called us to be and to do. At the end of this series, some of us will begin to dream dreams with more clarity and poise, we will be activated in the realm of visions again, we will begin to pick up promptings, voices, flows from the Holy Spirit and interpret them accurately what the Holy Spirit is saying to us the churches so that we can be effective in the mission field of life. We developed these 41 series and further broke these up into 6 easy to read chapters of 8 books of which this one is our sixth in the series. We hope you like it and we pray it will make you an effective kingdom disciple-maker, operating powerfully in the Spirit realm in Jesus name, Amen

Included in this book are examples of divine happenings, which establish religious truths or enlightenment. Finally, this book discusses how "FOLLOWING THE LIGHT" can help enrich our understanding of Theology as it applies to our daily lives.

Further, we examine some common beliefs and misconceptions as they relate to modern scientific studies that follow metaphysical principles and practices. The author has included some of his personal experiences as examples. Rev. Klaman had been meditating, praying, and studying --with a burning desire for the answers to his questions: Who or what is God? Why are we here?

He devoted his life to finding the answers, but little did he know he was about to receive them in a big way! More than ever before, people today are asking important questions about theology that need and deserve answers. Identifying and answering those questions is the purpose of this book.

Beim Wort "Seelsorge" denken die meisten Menschen an den Besuch des Pfarrers im Krankenhaus, wenn jemand im Sterben liegt. Doch auch in vielen anderen Religionen gibt es Seelsorge, und dieses Tätigkeitsfeld ist viel breiter und bunter, als man denkt. Im Essayband "Contemplative Care. Wegbereiter der buddhistischen Seelsorge in den USA" erzählen 35 buddhistische Seelsorgerinnen und Seelsorger aus erster Hand über ihre Arbeit im Hospiz, im Gefängnis, im Krankenhaus, am Universitätscampus und im Militär. Sie hören den Menschen zu, sprechen mit ihnen, meditieren mit ihnen, führen buddhistische Zeremonien durch. Sie organisieren Nachmittagsbetreuung für Kinder und Eltern, beraten Studierende auf dem Weg in ein selbstbestimmtes Leben und Helfen ehemaligen Gefängnisinsassen, wieder einen Job zu finden. Kurz gesagt: Sie kümmern sich um andere. Damit dies gelingt, müssen sie sich zuallererst um sich selbst kümmern, mit täglicher Meditation und Kontemplation. Das Buch erschien ursprünglich in den USA und ist nun erstmals auf Deutsch erhältlich. In Europa, auch im deutschsprachigen Raum, gibt es buddhistische Seelsorge, doch sie steckt noch in den Kinderschuhen. Wir haben es uns zum Ziel gesetzt, diese Art des Kümmerns-Umeinander zu fördern und hoffen, dass dieses Buch viele Menschen dazu inspirieren wird.

That turning point put her on a path to healing, and she now runs a successful business and is a prominent person in her community. We all carry scars. We all have broken parts. And we all have a chance at redemption and a new life. Just like Amy.
