"Books that are theoretically profound, clearly written, and vitally practical are hard to find on any subject. When one finds such a book on the family, it is truly a cause for rejoicing. Dr. James P. Osterhaus has written such a book. I hope and pray that many who are engaged in pastoral ministry and counseling will have the wisdom to purchase it, read it, and refer to it frequently." -John H. Rogers, Jr., Dean and President, Trinity Episcopal School for Ministry "This book will be a great help to the many people who, out of compassion, want to improve their helping skills.' It will also be read profitably by husbands, wives, and parents searching for insights and techniques to use in their own family life. Counseling Families fills the gap between the church and professional counseling. It is filled with real situations faced by modern families and it searches for practical solutions based on revealed truth." -Jay Kesler, President, Taylor University "The author has brought together a wealth of professional and technical information from the disciplines of counseling and family theory and, in turn, presents us with a very practical book on family life and relationships. Jim offers not only the concepts to consider, but also the 'how-to' in changing and healing relationships. This is a book of quality for the lay person as well as the professional counselor." Dick Mohline, Dean of Administration, Biola University Counseling Families is for counselors of any sort (professional, paraprofessional, pastoral) who encounter the challenges of family dysfunction. It is a book for chaplains, for students of clinical or counseling sychology, for students preparing for the ministry, and for church leaders who put a high priority on helping struggling families in the church. 259.1310437806 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 259.1 Ost c E92011740 Non Fiction 259.1 Ost c Counseling_Families.jpg 24127 2014-06-17 10:26:45 2026-01-23 17:37:23 machine generated
