Even with the best intentions, Christianity can quickly morph into a religion of self-improvement when the focus shifts from the centrality of the cross to a list of actions we deem necessary to get our act together and experience growth.
In Counsel from the Cross, Elyse Fitzpatrick and Dr. Dennis E. Johnson explain how advice that neglects the work of Christ will inevitably result in either pride or despair. They furthermore exemplify a counseling model based on Scripture and gospel application.
This book is not only for counselors and mentors, but also for those who long to comprehend more fully their acceptance before God by Christ’s righteousness alone and how to practically apply it to their everyday lives. Whether in a pastor’s study or at a coffee shop, those who both seek wise counsel or seek to be a source of wise counsel will find this relevant.
Elyse Fitzpatrick’s Prime Time America interview will be re-scheduled (TBD).
