Jay Adams has written possibly the single most important book on Biblical counseling, aligning all counsel not with popular contemporary notions of counseling, but with the all sufficient Scriptures, which are profitable for doctrine, reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God might be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work (2 Tim. 3:16-17).

A classic from the dean of Christian counseling! Adams has helped thousands of pastors, laypeople, and professionals to implement a Spirit-led approach to counseling. Promoting use of biblically based discussion, he offers profound insight into the way sin affects human personality, and how confession and taking responsibility restore counselees to wholeness in Christ.
