Do I Need Counseling?: When and Where to Get Help (Robert D. Jones)
Are your personal or relational problems overwhelming you, negatively impacting your daily life or relationships? While all of us face the common pressures of living in a broken world, sometimes those challenges become too much to handle alone, and they hinder us from effectively functioning the way God designed.

These are all times when you could benefit from focused help.
Counselor and pastor Robert D. Jones helps you evaluate what type of assistance you may need as you face a variety of challenges and guides you in better understanding what biblical counseling is and what key priorities biblical counselors pursue. He then guides you in where to look for biblical counseling and answers some common questions about the counseling process so that you can get the most benefit from it.
Quick fixes fail, but Jones shows how, through the gospel, we can learn God-centered contentment each day.

I Want to Escape: Reaching for Hope When Life is Too Much (Rush Witt))
Rush Witt helps us learn to bravely run to Christ instead of running away when life overwhelms.
Escape holds a powerful allure amid hard times. In every season, a myriad of pressures, challenges, regrets, and disappointments plague our lives. These trials and tribulations often provoke us to cry, “I’ve got to get outta here!” Even though we have many good reasons for trying to escape, as Christians we have even better reasons to depend courageously on our Savior in the ups and downs of life.
In I Want to Escape, you will learn to recognize the classic signs of escapism: denial, distraction, self-destruction, and thoughts of death and to instead take the path of courageous dependence on Jesus, who remains closer than a brother even when we’re ready to run.

Presuppositions of Biblical Counseling (Lou Priolo)
What counselors presuppose will ultimately dictate their philosophy and methodology of counseling. Historical biblical counselors presuppose only that which the Bible affirms. In Presuppositions of Biblical Counseling, Lou Priolo unpacks twelve presuppositions (originally postulated by Jay E. Adams) to help readers understand what sets biblical counseling apart from other theories (really, theologies) of counseling. It will also help those who are in counseling (or seeking counseling) determine if the counselors from whom they are seeking help are truly biblical.

Someone I Know Is Grieving: Responding with Humility and Compassion (Edward T. Welch)
Bestselling author and counselor Edward T. Welch walks readers through the difficult task of coming alongside grieving people with genuine compassion and humility.
When someone is grieving, it can be hard to know what to say or do. We want to be helpful, not hurtful, but it’s easy to go wrong. The good news is that we can learn to approach those who are grieving with the same compassion that Jesus shows us when we are grieving. It starts with humility and listening well and expands into practical support as the Spirit leads us.
In Someone I Know Is Grieving, Edward T. Welch leans on his many years of counseling grieving people to help readers learn from their compassionate Savior how to respond to people’s sadness and hard times without advice or trying to “fix it,” but to instead hear their story, learn from others’ experiences, and depend on the Spirit for wisdom for what to say and do.

Where Is God When It Hurts? (Philip Yancey)
Gold Medallion Book Award Winner. Over a million copies sold.
An inspirational classic for more than thirty years, Where Is God When It Hurts? honestly explores pain—from physical wounds to emotional and spiritual pain—and sheds new light on God’s presence in our suffering.
“How can a loving God allow this to happen? God is either all-loving or all-powerful, but he can’t be both.”
You’ve heard that question, and perhaps you’ve even asked it yourself. When a loved one dies, we receive a terminal diagnosis, or natural disasters strike, people often wonder whether God is the cause of suffering and why he doesn’t immediately take away the pain or fix the situation. As a result, we become angry at the once-beloved God who betrayed us.

Anger and Stress Management God’s Way (Wayne Mack)
Anger and stress affect each of us every day—even if we aren’t feeling them ourselves, we come into contact with people who are. But their commonplace nature shouldn’t cause us to shrug them away.
