David Powlison Examines the Unique Role of the Pastor as Counselor

A pastor inhabits multiple roles--teacher, preacher, youth leader, and counselor. And yet, many church leaders feel unprepared to counsel church members struggling with any number of difficult, multifaceted problems--whether from a lack of training, inexperience, or both.

This book by David Powlison--an experienced counselor and the former executive director of the Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation--reminds pastors of their unique role as the shepherds of God's people, tasked with applying biblical wisdom to the thoughts, values, moods, expectations, and decisions of those under their care.
