For over a decade, this useful guidebook has served as an essential tool for Christians -- counselors, pastors, and laypeople alike -- who desire to be "thoroughly equipped" with the Scriptures, "prepared for every good work." In fact, "the more equipped you are," says John Kruis in the introduction to this popular counseling tool, "the more effective you will be in helping others." This new edition, now revised and expanded, is specially designed to help all God's people use the Scriptures more effectively in their lives. - Back cover.
