David Powlison Examines the Unique Role of the Pastor as Counsellor

A pastor inhabits multiple roles—teacher, preacher, youth leader, and Counsellor. And yet, many church leaders feel unprepared to counsel church members struggling with any number of difficult, multifaceted problems—whether from a lack of training, inexperience, or both.

This book by David Powlison—an experienced Counsellor and the former executive director of the Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation—reminds pastors of their unique role as the shepherds of God’s people, tasked with applying biblical wisdom to the thoughts, values, moods, expectations, and decisions of those under their care.
