Counseling Bible

Where do I start? What do I look for? How do I progress? How do I know when I should stop? These questions are among the most common that have been asked regarding counseling. The thought that many have regarding counseling is that they are unqualified and need to appeal to someone they consider an expert. The appeal is better made to the Creator. From the very beginning of the Bible, we see God’s interaction with people and the process that He took to deal with the issues people encounter in this life. In “Learning to live the Gospel”, Dr. Carter lays out God’s counseling process ...

Instructions for achieving financial success can actually be found within the pages of the Bible. For those wise enough to follow them, prosperity is the promised result. These guidelines are given to us by God Himself, in the form of principles which any person can adopt and apply in their own life. The author does not, however, take the approach that God can be manipulated into satisfying your selfish, worldly whims. You will not find a "prosperity Gospel" here. Instead, the reader is shown the Biblical procedure for getting their heart right with God, so that they arrive in a state where...

“Suck it up.”Those words empowered and encouraged me as a boy. They injured me as a man. When we talk about pain, we first think of physical pain from injury or accident. There is a masculine, internal block on the notion of our emotions or feelings being hurt. How could they be, we’re men after all! That was my stubborn mindset for years until I realized that my unresolved pain had devastated most of my adult life and held a lasting effect on me. Once I dropped the macho facade, God showed me how to get free from the stranglehold of what living a life of hurt and hate had caused. I ...

Life doesn't always go the way we hope it will. Whether it's singleness, childlessness, or some other big disappointment, it's hard to be content when life lets us down.

'Reconstructing the Heart' is an honest look at what it means to be emotional in all the right ways. As the reader will learn, the “right” ways are determined by the ethical/judicial presuppositions and actions we use when deploying our emotions. Because of the abhorrent assumptions and influence of Greek philosophy, many Christians today are left without a proper understanding of what it means to be righteously and biblically emotional. Reconstructing the Heart is a technical and practical look at how to reclaim your emotions from the clutches of sin and bad theology. The reader will ...

In this five-session, audio Bible study (guide sold separately), Andy Stanley unpacks the power of faith and the need for maintaining your confidence in Jesus Christ amid the ups and downs of daily life. If you grew up in a religious home, you were probably taught that God answers prayers. Maybe you were even taught that if you just had enough faith, God would say yes to what you were asking him to do.

Freedom from past pain is not a random act or period of time in waiting, but an intentional process of breaking chains. Becoming unbreakable is a process of purification through life's trials by fire. From someone who has overcome the destructive trials of a pain-filled past, Dr. Scott Silverii shares not only what he’s lived, but what he knows to be the simple reality of life. Let’s commit to smashing the shackles that bind us.

In this audio Bible study (guide sold separately), pastor and best-selling author Andy Stanley builds a biblical case for five things God uses to grow BIG faith.

The prison fields are white and ready for harvest. Will you be the one to answer the call?

You will find that much of what I present here is counter culture to the psychology and martial counseling approaches today. It centers on a perspective that is taught in the Bible which gives a mindset as to how biblical marriage differs from that popular notion many today follow. That mindset becomes the spring board to the how to of living out a biblical marriage that is not only fulfilling, but gives clarity to life in a way that most don’t understand.

In this Audio Bible Study, pastor and business leader Jeff Henderson provides practical tools to help Christians communicate to the world what they are for rather than against.

Through intimate story and deep study of the Bible, Jess Connolly—beloved author of You Are the Girl for the Job—casts a fresh vision for what it looks like to live set apart as women on holy ground in today's culture of confusion.

In many ways, the story of Job is the story of every person, because no matter who we are, at some time in life, we all suffer. The only thing that separates us is the degree of our suffering. In discussing the subject of suffering with a friend of mine, he said that for most people life’s flow is a constant series of struggles, punctuated by times of peace. I believe everyone, everywhere, at differing times of life, comes face-to-face with their own suffering. If you are not suffering now, you certainly will at some point in life, wouldn’t you like to be prepared? If your answer is yes...

Religion says, "Change and you can join us." Jesus says, "Join us and you will change." There's a huge difference. Being a sinner doesn't disqualify anyone. Being an unbeliever doesn't disqualify anyone. In fact, following Jesus almost always begins with a sinner and unbeliever taking one small step. In this eight-session audio Bible study (guide sold separately), pastor and best-selling author Andy Stanley takes small groups on a journey through the Gospels as he traces Jesus' teaching on what it means to follow.
