  Pastor As Counselor

  $7.99

  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.

  Gods Grace In Your Suffering

  $11.99

  It’s easy to see God’s grace when things are going well. But in the midst of suffering-when we don’t sense any positive change in our circumstances on the horizon-we can start to question God’s goodness. Exploring the biblical truths found in each stanza of the classic hymn “How Firm a Foundation,” experienced biblical counselor David Powlison invites us to hear God’s perspective and see God’s purpose in our suffering. Rather than offering abstract theory or mere sentimentality, Powlison writes to anchor our hope in the God who promises to be with us and transform us in the midst of even our darkest trials.

  How Does Sanctification Work

  $11.99

  There is a popular view that our sanctification happens mainly by thinking more deeply about what Jesus has already done for us. But rather than describing one simple formula, Scripture portrays the process of our transformation into the likeness of Christ in a rich variety of ways. In this short book, longtime counselor, teacher, and writer David Powlison weaves together personal stories and exposition of Scripture to cast a biblical vision for the personalized ways God changes, grows, and matures his people. Arguing against a reductionist view of sanctification that portrays it as a one-size-fits-all process, this book aims to widen our view of sanctification as we minister to others in light of the many ways God conforms us into the image of Christ.
