Subjects: Pastoral psychology, Psychologie pastorale, Pastoral counseling, Counseling pastoral, Spiritualiteit, Psychothérapie, Psychotherapie, Psychotherapy

Description: The true spiritual way is based on the Bible. Rather than using theories of men, the spiritual counselor relies on the truths of God. Through such scriptural means as love, listening, acceptance, mercy, teaching, and encouragement, the spiritual counselor guides an individual in applying biblical principles to his life in order to develop more Christlike thought and behavior patterns. We are not opposed to, nor are we criticizing, the entire field of psychology, but rather the practice of psychotherapy based on ideologies which contradict Scripture. - Preface.
