This week he discusses why your counsel must be more than situational and relational fixes. It must be a result of looking at a person’s story through the lens of the biblical story. This audio is from the Distance Ed version of Helping Relationships taught by Paul Tripp. This class is designed to focus on the person who is counseling, the process of counseling, and the critical skills necessary to effect change. It focuses on how to bring the person and work of the Redeemer to people in the midst of their problems. It is offered 5 times a year through Distance Ed: August, Oct, Jan, April, and June. Ed Welch also teaches this class in PA in the Spring.
