Produktbeschreibung
We live in a world where there is a definite need for pastoral care and counselling. Many communities experience high levels of crime, violence, prostitution, drug abuse, child neglect and other social evils. A large number of people suffer from psychological disorders. Psychologists and social workers render sterling service in this regard. Unfortunately, many of these problems, disorders and social ills contain a spiritual or religious component and these professionals are not always equipped to deal with this aspect. It is, therefore, necessary to provide a biblical view of all these problem areas of mankind and give guidelines on how to apply the message of the Gospel to people who suffer. Various spiritual and life problems are discussed and answers and solutions are provided. This study guide is meant for all Christians who feel the need to aid those in trouble - pastors, members of church councils, leaders of Bible study groups and youth leaders. They are often the first line of defense against the various ailments of society.
