The Journal of Biblical Counseling: Volume 25, Number 2, Spring 2007
Overview
For nearly 30 years, the Journal of Biblical Counseling (previously the Journal of Pastoral Practice) of CCEF (the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation) has provided a forum for biblical counseling’s development and application. The journal’s mission is to develop clear thinking and effective practice in biblical counseling through articles that faithfully bring the God of truth, mercy, and power to the issues faced by ministries of counseling and discipleship.
Top Highlights
“Where the living, speaking, seeing, acting God rules, His servants move freely into the culture of their time and place. The Bible gives no warrant for Christians to be intellectual isolationists, to be biblicistic, cut off from culture, speaking a private language to our own kind.” (Page 15)
“The first priority: articulating biblical truth and developing our systematic theology of care for the soul” (Page 14)
“But they are committed to defining the core, causal problem as anything except sin” (Page 26)
“Third, we will develop our model through interacting with contemporary models.” (Page 16)
“He aims to proclaim, teach, and model something distinctive. The Bible’s positive message both is counseling and is about counseling. In content, method, and institutional locus the Bible overflows with counseling instructions and implications, not just in proof-texts, but in the whole body of Scripture.” (Page 14)
