Why Use This Resource?

The Scriptures are ideally suited for any and every counseling situation. "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work" (2 Tim.:16-17). Paul makes it clear that there is no substitute for Scripture when counseling those with personal, family or marriage problems. In order to be "thoroughly equipped" for counseling, one must know God's Word. This resource was designed as a road map for discovering what the Bible has to say about various topics in counseling.

Benefits of the Electronic Version

This electronic version significantly expedites a counselor's research. One needs only to open his or her program and resource, type in the topic and a list will appear with verses that apply to the issue at hand. For example, if a counselee is experiencing the problem of shifting blame to others, or even God, the Quick Scripture Reference for Counseling yields three helpful verses that deal with that specific topic. The verse automatically appears in the New King James Version but with the Libronix Digital Library System you need only hover your mouse pointer over the Scripture passage to view your preferred Bible translation (this requires that you own that particular translation in Libronix format).
