The Bible addresses all human problems directly or indirectly. Christian Counselors and other Christian leaders must therefore use and apply the WORD to the issues faced by their clients or those the Lord puts in their hands. Because it catalogs human problems with relevant bible passages, Applying the Word to Human Problems & Issues, is quick reference for helping clients and parishioners apply specific scriptures to their life situations. It helps the Christian professional organize their counseling around the following questions: • What problem or issue is this person facing? • What does the Bible teach about the problem or issue? • How can I best use this passage to help him or her grow spiritually and draw closer to the Lord? The answers to the above questions, will allow for the appropriate subordination of secular mental health principles, which will continue to change, to the teachings of the Bible which will never change.
