Handbook of Church Discipline I001		~~$14.99~~	$11.99
Jay E. Adams
This is a handbook for pastors, elders, and all Christians who want to see how Scripture presents the process of discipline that should operate in the Christian community. It was written in response to an urgent need: "As I think of the homes that have been hopelessly broken, the estrangements that have permanently resulted, and the misery that has been unnecessarily caused by the failure of churches to practice church discipline, or to practice it biblically, my heart aches. Even more tragically, as I consider the ruins of many congregations torn by schismatic and fractious persons who have been allowed to wreck havoc with Christ's flock, and the sickness of many others weakened by the infectious toxin of unrepentant sin that runs through congregational arteries, I am deeply moved." In order to help church leaders deal with the sorts of problems that require the church to respond with discipline, the author has developed the book around the five steps of corrective discipline found especially in Matthew 18:15-17. Because there is not merely one kind or one stage of discipline, church leaders must learn how to discern. And once the right discernment has been made, then the right action can follow. This is a simple and very readable little handbook. the influence it can and should have on the church is, however, quite profound.

Place of Authority in Christ's Church I002		~~$10.00~~	$8.00
Jay E. Adams
In our day authority has largely disappeared from society. Many flaunt their permissive views at any who assert authorityeven legitimate authority! This rejection of authority is not only a matter of how the world acts, such rejection also permeates the thinking of many Christians. Many (perhaps most) of the problems that the church faces today stem from this attitude toward the authority of Jesus Christ invested in His church. What can be done about the situation? How may this be done in a biblical manner? Who should be involved in doing it? The church will continue to disregard this very important matter to its peril. Here is a treatment of the question that clearly shows Gods way out of the dilemma.

The case is made for practical care and discipline in the local church. The place of leadership is examined biblically. Shepherdly concerns are set forth to enable those who are in charge of a flock of Gods sheep to shepherd them as the Great Shepherd desires. A book for sheep and shepherds alike.

You've been misled if you think the Book of Ecclesiastes is a glum, pessimistic volume lacking hope. And you're wrong if you believe the writer was a soured, despairing cynic who could see only the negative side of life. There is pessimism in the book - but it is pessimism about "life under the sun." there is nothing but optimism about the lot of those who serve God. In this original translation, the full impact of Solomon's wisdom shines forth. His understanding of life's foibles and the vanity of living for this world are countered by his frequent exhortations to rejoice . . . and have a good meal!

Solving Marriage Problems K001		~~$10.99~~	$8.25
Jay E. Adams
Counselors unanimously find that marriage and family problems outnumber all other counseling problems combined," writes Jay Adams. " For that reason alone, counselors should want to learn all they can about marriage counseling." This is a book to help counselors understand and deal with the typical problems that arise in a marriage. The approach is to offer not merely solutions, but biblical solutions. Chapter by chapter, each problem that is brought into focus is addressed by Scripture, and a solution arising from Scripture is developed. Unless one understands what a biblical marriage is supposed to be, it is difficult to solve marriage problems. For that reason, Dr. Adams spends the first few chapters developing a biblical model. Then he treats many of the specific kinds of problems that typically arise: life patterns, priorities, children, sex roles, in-laws, etc. This is a book that belongs on every pastor's and every counselor's shelf.

Theology of Christian Counseling, A K002		~~$18.99~~	$15.20
Jay E. Adams
A Theology of Christian Counseling is a book that connects biblical doctrine with practical living. Salvation, that central concern of Protestant theology, is often too narrowly defined. It is thought to be "being saved from the consequences of sin." But God is doing much more. He is making new creatures. " No counseling system that is based on some other foundation can begin to offer what Christian counseling offers.... No matter what the problem is, no matter how greatly sin has abounded, the Christian counselor's stance is struck by the far-more-abounding nature of the grace of Jesus Christ in redemption. What a difference this makes in counseling!" In this book the reader will gain an insight into the rich theological framework that supports and directs a biblical approach to counseling. And the connection between solid theology and practical application will become compelling. This is a one-of-a-kind. Don't ignore it!

Marriage, Divorce, and Remarriage in the Bible K003		~~$10.99~~	$8.25
Jay E. Adams
This is the book that many pastors, counselors, and theologians consider to be the most biblical and the most helpful on the issue of marriage and divorce. If the church is going to use the Bible to decide whether divorce is legitimate in certain cases and whether divorced people have the right to remarry with the approval and blessing of God's people, then the bible must be studied without prejudice toward a particular answer. The author examines the relevant passages in both the Old and New Testaments so that his readers can consider the many issues and interpretations that arise in trying to establish a consistently biblical position. As a result, readers can see more clearly and accept more firmly the truth of Scripture. The book succeeds at being exactly what the author wanted it to be: "a comprehensive, lucid, accurate study presented in a readable and practical style..." It is a valuable resource for the pastor, the counselor, and the church leader, as well as other individuals who are struggling to understand and apply Scriptural principles to the problems of divorce and remarriage.

Jay E. Adams
Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? Familiar questions in our day and age. But has our search for answers led us too far in the wrong direction: away from our true position in Christ and toward a dangerous emphasis on self? The last 15 years has seen the rise of a powerful and influential movement within the church. Easily identified by labels such as "self-image," "self-worth," and "self-love," this movement has one common denominator - the emphasis on self. Regardless of religious persuasion, everyone seems to be fighting what they perceive to be a shared enemy: low self-esteem. Now well-known biblical counselor and noted author Jay Adams brings much-needed clarification to the area of self-esteem and offers the church and every believer a truly Biblical view of self.

How to Help People Change: The Four Step Biblical Process K013		~~$12.99~~	$10.40
Jay E. Adams
"While touching on many aspects of counseling, this book... is specifically designed to elucidate the process of counseling. I have often mentioned and illustrated that process, but not in the focused and systematic way that the four-step biblical process is set forth here... This Book presents a fresh perspective not only on how to counsel, but also on what measures to take at what stages of counseling." Change is the essential goal of the counseling process. And Christian counselors recognize, as the author is so concerned to remind us, "Substantial change requires the alteration of the heart." How does a Christian counselor work in order to bring about this kind of change? the answer is found, of course, in Scripture--in 2 Timothy 3:14-17, to be specific. Jay Adams is well-known as a counselor who bases his whole approach to counseling on scripture.

Jay E. Adams
The statement that "All Truth is Gods Truth" has become the slogan of integrationist counselors. Under this rubric many of the false and harmful ideas of non-Christian counseling have been incorporated into the practices of the church. Is the slogan true?

These and other matters central to and growing out of this important issue are discussed in this volume. Every counselor calling himself "Christian" and every counselee seeing any counselor will find this book both informative and challenging.

Growing by Grace: Sanctification & Counseling K028		~~$11.00~~	$8.80
Jay E. Adams
What is the relationship between sanctification and biblical counseling? Not only is this question dealt with in detail, but an incisive study of Scriptural sanctification is set forth in contrast to the many false views abroad in the church today. The place of sanctification in the counseling process as well as the place of the counseling process in sanctification is considered. Until the two are correctly understood and brought into practical juxtaposition, a counselor will fail to counsel in ways that are pleasing to God and helpful to his counselees. Every counselor should be acquainted with the truth of sanctification practically set forth in Growing by Grace.

How to Help People in Conflict K114		~~$14.00~~	$11.20
Jay E. Adams
Everyone wants "world peace." But is peace even possible? Because the world is not part of God's family, there is no hope for global peace. It is peace within the church, therefore, that must be pursued by God's sons - those whom He saved by grace through Jesus Christ. While peacemaking is the task of all Christians, it is peculiarly the task of the biblical pastor/counselor. So we wonder... Are you a peacemaker? Is your church a peacemaking center? Sadly, many homes and churches are filled with strife and misunderstanding. They are not dominated by peace. So what is peace - "shalom" - and how do we attain it? This book can help you and your church pursue peace according to God's Word... learn how to become a biblical peacemaker and help bring that "peace that passes understanding" into your home and church. Only the answers from God's Word can give us hope when we are hopeless.

Preaching According to the Holy Spirit L065		~~$12.99~~	$10.40
Jay E. Adams
Pastors, does your preaching follow in the tradition of the apostles, whose preaching "turned the world upside down?" Or has God used your mediocre preaching to bring people to faith in Christ and to build up the saints - in spite of its significant weaknesses? The Word of the living God is not boring. It is only poor preachers who make it seem so. The issue is not God's power to bless, but your power to harm! In Preaching According to the Holy Spirit, Jay Adams sets forth the Holy Spirit's concerns about preaching by studying our models - the apostolic preachers in the New Testament. He shows how you might say the right thing with the right words in the right manner at the right time. This book will help you to "do your best to present yourself to God tried and true, a workman who won't be ashamed, cutting the Word of truth with accuracy" so that on the last day you will hear "Well done, you good and faithful servant."

Jay E. Adams
In recent days there has been a resurgence of a doctrine long forgotten by most of the Bible-believing church called Preterism {meaning "past"}. It refers to prophecy as either largely or entirely fulfilled in the past. There is a spate of books, conferences, and debates about Preterism now taking place. In this book, Jay Adams separates the wheat from the chaff about Preterism. He will help you to understand what Preterism has to teach you about our day and the days to come.

It's happened to you many times before: your friend just seems down about everything, nothing's going right, and even the weather is dreary. You rack your brain trying to think of something to say, but words just won't come. Finally you mutter something like "I'm sure it'll work out," or, "Just keep on smiling." Pathetic. Lame. And not remotely encouraging to your friend. So, what can you say to your friend? Should you possibly even do something? Dr. Adams defines Biblical encouragement, demonstrates its importance for the spiritual well-being of Christians, and then teaches you how to put it into practice. So now, instead of empty words, learn how to give useful advice and loving, biblical encouragement to your fellow believer.

Importance of Faith in Counseling K128		~~$14.00~~	$11.20
Jay E. Adams
Is your counseling "mixed with faith," as the writer of Hebrews put it? Of course you want your counselee to have faith. But let me ask another question. Do you believe God can really change your counselee? If you do not, then your counseling will be unbiblical, moralistic, and ineffective. Faith is essential to the solution of spiritual problems - your couselee's faith in God and also your faith in God. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Recognizing this, it is important to know the biblical "ins and outs" of faith. In this volume you will learn what it means to counsel with faith, for results that faith produces, and that help grow greater faith in counselees.

Compassionate Counseling K129		~~$13.00~~	$10.40
Jay E. Adams
If the people who are closest to you were polled, would they choose "compassionate" as a word that describes you? In the Bible, God sets forth a picture of the estate of sin and misery that all men are in but then proclaims the remarkable way in which He has shown compassion upon human beings by providing a way out of their misery through Jesus Christ. (I Corinthians 10:13). Sometimes biblical counselors are (falsely) accused of lacking compassion. But they should recognize that , above all else, they must counsel in God's presence in ways that honor Him. Therefore they must compassionately counsel people who come to them suffering from the ravages of sin. Compassion can be studied, understood, encouraged, and directed, but it cannot be generated. It is my hope that this book may assist you in bringing about that inner visceral concern for others that insists upon helping them.
