About this product
Product Information
Theological education has historically placed a strong emphasis on Scripture as the source of principle and practice for ministry. However, when it comes to the arena of counseling, this has largely not been the case. Focusing on the significant influence of Wayne Edward Oates (1917-1999), the author seeks to explore how and why the American Protestant church arrived at the place where psychological counseling has become the norm and biblical counseling is treated as novel. A detailed study of Oates' anthropology, which served as the heart of his counseling theory and practice, demonstrates that it was shaped and informed by secular concepts, values, and principles instead of what God has to say about who we are as people, what plagues our souls, and where we find our true hope and healing. This subtle shift from the theological to the therapeutic has contributed to a much broader view from many in the church that counseling is more of a clinical and professional service rather than a personal or pastoral ministry of the Scriptures. Through these unsettling warnings and implications, the author hopes that the church will see the importance of once again engaging with the God-glorifying, Christ-honoring, and Spirit-empowering ministry of counseling.

Reviews
"Samuel Stephens provides an excellent and thorough examination of Wayne Edward Oates' pilgrimage from biblical orthodoxy to a flawed psychologized theology. But his penetrating analysis cannot be limited to the perils that allured and entrapped this one man. Stephens' work exposes the dangerous path countless Christian counselors have journeyed from biblical light to darkness. Therein is also a perennial forewarning to Christians who think they can remain faithful to God by walking the same path." --Ronnie W. Rogers, author of The Equipping Church: Somewhere Between Fundamentalism and Fluff "The shadow of Wayne Edward Oates' influence on contemporary Christian and pastoral counseling is undeniable. He was vitally interested in the connection between secular psychology and faith, which is especially seen in the rewriting of his doctoral thesis in 1951, 'The Significance of the Work of Sigmund Freud for the Christian Faith.' In this revealing work Sam Stephens has carefully researched Oates' amalgamation of these two distinct belief systems into 'Oates' Christian psychology,' showing some strengths but also revealing significant problems and weaknesses. Oates had a strong reliance upon existential philosopher, Paul Tillich, in his approach to formulating his psychology. This is especially seen in the way that Stephens has uncovered Oates' anthropology, showing its secular roots and foundation. I believe this work is a significant contribution to Christian thinkers who are interested in recovering a biblical theology of counseling." --John D. Street, Chair, Graduate Program in Biblical Counseling, The Master's University and Seminary, and President, Association of Certified Biblical Counselors "There are several key subjects that define the way we approach ministry. Anthropology is a crucial one. Dr. Stephens helps us understand the importance of the subject and provides insight into how the American church's anthropology was shifted by psychological influences in the twentieth century. The effects of this shift are stunning. Dr. Stephens' research provides helpful context and warning for how we engage in ministry as we guard the way God has defined Man in Scripture, rather than defining Man by tenets of secular psychology." --T. Dale Johnson Jr., Executive Director, The Association of Certified Biblical Counselors, and Associate Professor of Biblical Counseling, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary

Ok so I ordered this item listed as having free shipping. It was listed at $43.54 with free shipping. Somehow I ended up being charged $65.52. Then after waiting 3 weeks and having absolutely no tracking information I spoke with the seller who agreed to send a replacment, but despite charging me extra money was unwilling to ship that replacment in a way that wouldn't take atleast 3 more weeks. Ultimately this was a complete waste of time and the seller is not one that I would recommend.

This is not a coloring book!!!!! It’s just a book of black and white photos and even if colored over would look horrible! This book is a scam and I have received 2 items out of 3 I ordered and the third hasn’t even been shipped. Tried to message seller but only option given is to send the item number but no way to give reason for dissatisfaction with item! I would advise not ordering anything from this seller…
