Synopsis:

If you are a pastor, Christian counselor, chaplain, or a student training to become a minister, this book is for you. The book is informative and inspiring and the chapter on, "What is Missing from the 21st Century Pulpit," paints the picture of the real life setting that impacts every church. Also included in this book is a couple's conflict resolution diagnostic instrument. The instrument has the capacity to reveal and uncover conflicts between a couple without either one disclosing or verbalizing their conflict. The book will sharpen your sense of awareness to the reality of the people sitting in your church pews and the urgent need for a paradigm shift in the way you minister to these people to meet their felt needs beyond the spiritual.
