Contemporary Booklet Series Delivers Biblical Solutions
DALLAS, Aug. 11 /Christian Newswire/ -- This Sunday, churches across the country will fill with smiling, nicely dressed people. But looks can be deceiving. From the anonymous back-row pew-dweller married to an abusive spouse to the prominent church member struggling with a secret addiction, the body of Christ is not immune to the messes that accompany daily living in our fallen world. These people desperately need to feel God's healing touch, but is the church ready to deal with such serious crises?
New Growth Press is pleased to introduce a new series of booklets that will equip pastors, counselors, and everyday Christians to provide encouragement and real life-giving answers for people dealing with serious problems. The faculty of CCEF (Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation), long recognized for their adherence to scripture and excellence in counseling technique, have authored this exciting collection of 21 new titles. The topics are divided into three categories: Parenting Resources, Marriage and Family Resources, and Resources for Personal Change.
"One of our most important roles at New Growth Press is to enable our insightful authors to address pressing issues from the perspective of Christian faith, especially areas of hidden sin that have been sidestepped by the church in the past. Basically, we write candidly about the issues that most people don't want to talk about," states company president Karen Teears. "Like everything we publish with CCEF, these booklets are very gospel-centered and dense with scripture. This series is a great resource for churches who want to meet the changing needs of their congregations."
The booklets are designed for use in a variety of settings. Pastors and counselors are encouraged to utilize them in conjunction with regular counseling sessions. The concise format, affordable price, and contemporary, compelling cover art make these materials ideally suited for the check-out area or gospel tract section of a bookstore or a free display in a church lobby. "So many of the issues addressed in this series are associated with deep shame, and many people haven't yet summoned the courage to talk to someone about their problems," Teears reflects. "The simple act of reading a free booklet can be the first step toward confronting and dealing with their sin."
