Christian counselors agree that the Bible's message of salvation can radically change lives. Scripture can lead even the most unlikely people to faith but when it comes to everyday problems - is the Bible really enough?
Here we have more than a dozen highly trained counselors, medical experts and pastors who are highly respected in their fields. Every one has at least one doctorate relevant to the area they examine in this book. Their answers to the question stated above are enlightening, thought provoking and surprising.
"This remarkable book on Christian counseling vis-à-vis psychological counseling carries an admirably accurate title: Totally Sufficient. Not only is its subject - the Bible - totally sufficient as a clinical tool in skilful hands for the treatment of behavioural disorders, but this compendium of twelve essays is also eminently adequate to the task which it confronts."
-- D. James Kennedy, Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, Fort Lauderdale, Florida ((1930-2007) Late Pastor of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, Fort Lauderdale, Florida)"Confused about counselling - what to believe and who to believe? Then this is the book for you! The subjects are discussed clearly and comprehensively. The language is free from technical jargon, and the chapters can be easily and helpfully understood by the average reader. This book deserves a wider readership. It is very good and well worth buying."
-- Peter Sanderson, Evangelical Times"Totally Sufficient belongs in every Christian counselor training program as a useful tool in teaching learners the importance of biblically evaluating the many competing philosophies in the field of counseling."
-- Judy A. Dabler, Executive Director, Center for Biblical Counseling & Education, St. Louis, Missouri"An excellent review of the fundamental issues of how to counsel in contemporary society. "
