al counselor to aid people facing the many types of crisis situations that they inevitably will encounter in a world of sin. The counselor will be shown how to help in three vital areas:

- To make a biblical analysis of the crisis situation

- To take a personal inventory of his state, attitudes, behavior, and resources.

- To follow biblical directions in responding to the issues in the crisis situation.

Dr. Adams demonstrates how to apply Biblical concern wisely and productively. He concludes the book with ten sample cases that may be used by students, either individually or in a class, to provide practice in applying the biblical principles of crisis counseling presented in the book. Questions and answers for role play accompany each case.
