Pure Life Collection (12 Vols.) |
Classical Pastoral Care (4 Vols.) |
 The Pure Life Collection is the result of many years of confronting and conquering the addiction of sexual sin. Today Christians are being inundated with pornography and other forms of sexual sin explicitly displayed on the television, at the movies, in books, and on the Internet. How do Christians stay pure in the sight of God in an unholy, corrupt world? Is it possible for believers in this modern era to be in the world, but not of it? Pure Life Ministries testifies to the sobering fact that sexual sin can and does destroy lives, homes, churches, careers and one’s relationship with God. It affects pastors and lay people alike, regardless of one’s economic or social status. It is an epidemic that the Church must face squarely and honestly. The Pure Life Collection includes nine books and three videos, providing pastors, counselors, lay leaders and those who suffer with sexual sin valuable, scripturally sound answers to address this dreadful addiction and provide healing. Titles Include:

 The purpose of this series is to present in plain English the most indispensable texts of pastoral writers prior to the beginning of the eighteenth century. Its goal is the care of souls, viewed historically. To this end, Classical Pastoral Care features selected short passages from these writers on a number of important issues that face today’s pastor. Pride of place is given to patristic sources, although medieval and Reformation authors are scarcely overlooked. Concise introductions preface thoughtfully organized thematic sections, and each text is linked with companion texts through insightful analysis. Although our modern concept of pastoral counseling is relatively new, the wisdom of Christian thinkers of centuries past can be directly applied to believers today. What did Saint Thomas Aquinas write about behavioral change strategies? How can Origen add to your care for the emotionally ill? Classical Pastoral Care is pastoral care as understood, practiced and set forth by key writers of the Christian tradition. The series presents especially those rare texts that have a gem-like quality, that one often hopes to find easily but for which much reading is often necessary. The search has often required extensive digging in a given period or series before coming across just that text that best embodies the pastoral tradition, that brightly illuminates its subject, or profoundly grasps the point, or states it more subtly than before. This has been the joy and vexation of this editorial effort, similar to panning for gold in a deserted stream, only rarely coming across the bright nugget. |
