Spiritual Interventions in Christian Counseling

Counseling as a Christ-infused Supernatural Ministry

What would it mean for Christian counseling to take seriously the idea that God intervenes in the world? What would it look like for pastors, therapists, and lay counselors to see themselves as opening the doors to miraculous divine encounters? How would counseling change if the interventions of God were not merely theoretical, but lived experience?

The essays in this volume explore what a God-centered model of Christian counseling would look like. The contributors share the conviction that God is able to bring about lasting psychospiritual change here and now.

Some of the topics discussed in the book include Inner Healing, Contemplative Prayer, Transformation Prayer, Deliverance, Biblical Counseling, Christian Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Christian Holism, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Formational Counseling, Visualization and EMDR, Sex Addiction, and Praying the Scriptures.

Spiritual Interventions in Christian Counseling seeks to encourage and aid counselors, pastors, church staff, clinical practitioners, academics, and students in developing this kind of God-encountering, Christ-centered ministry of miraculous change.
