Helping Children with Shame (Edward T. Welch)
Shame is the experience of feeling unacceptable, less than others, or different. Children often experience the sting of this particular sense of failing to measure up. Whether this heavy feeling comes from internal or external pressures, children need help to understand what to do with their feelings of inadequacy and rejection.
Counselor and author Edward T. Welch helps counselors and parents see how shame is addressed in Scripture and how the Lord looks on struggling children with compassion and acceptance. He demonstrates how to connect a child’s story of shame to the themes of Scripture so that a child can put words to his or her experience and see that Jesus knows our name, clothes us with dignity, and gives us his reputation.

Addictions: A Banquet in the Grave – Finding Hope in the Power of the Gospel (Ed Welch)
Addiction is a worship disorder. Will we worship ourselves and our own desires, or will we worship the true God?
Scripture reveals the addict’s true condition: he is a guest at a banquet thrown by those intending to devour him, and he’s nearly already in the grave. (Proverbs 9:13–18)
Can we not escape our addictions? Ed Welch shows us that when we choose to follow Jesus, we can have immense hope in God, to supply power, so that we are no longer mastered by any addiction.

Side by Side: Walking with Others in Wisdom and Love (Ed Welch)
Everyone needs help from time to time, especially in the midst of painful circumstances and difficult trials. In this short book, a highly respected biblical counselor and successful author offers practical guidance for all Christians—pastors and laypeople alike—who want to develop their “helping skills” when it comes to walking alongside hurting people.
Friends are the best helpers, and this book is grounded in that idea. Welch shows believers that most of us are already equipped to bear one another’s burdens through gentle words of wisdom and kind acts of love. God uses ordinary relationships and conversations between ordinary Christians in your lives, more than that of “professionals.” Using nothing more spectacular or exceptional than each other, God works extraordinary miracles in our lives.
