Are you looking for a brief introduction to what the biblical counselling movement is and how it has changed over the years? In Developments in Biblical Counseling, J. Cameron Fraser turns a journalistic eye to this question and presents a concise assessment.
Introducing us to the formative work of Jay Adams, Fraser outlines several themes of biblical counselling that became foundational for the movement as a whole and observes how the movement received criticisms from outside and made necessary developments from within.
"Fair, compelling, and helpful. I hope the book sells very well, and that it advances the cause of Christ as the church grows up in maturity by increasingly learning how to speak the truth in love."
--- Heath Lambert, Executive Director, Association of Certified Biblical Counselors, Associate Professor of Counseling at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
"Cautious, canny, and clear, Cameron Fraser's sympathetic unpacking of this internal debate in Christian counseling is a bonus for the bemused."
--- J. I. Packer, Board of Governors' Professor of Theology, Regent College, Vancouver, BC
