This review is from: Biblical Concepts for Christian Counseling: A Case for Integrating Psychology and Theology (Paperback)

This work by William T. Kirwan is the place to start when looking at the field of Christian Counseling. The outline of this book is very complete and provides depth in many aspects of Christian Counseling. The cited works used in this text provide a "Who's Who" presentation for the aspiring counselor. This text helped launch my hunger in the field. The book starts slow but it quickly builds the reader's vocabulary and presents information with an ease toward comprehension.

I'm probably bias but I really enjoyed reading this book and how it viewed christian counselling and how psychology could be integrated. It was easy to read and I liked how the argument on integrating christian counselling was presented.
