In this book, my intention is to help you, the reader, to understand how a counseling theory is constructed. In addition, I want the book to be a reminder of the foundations and construction of a historic biblical-counseling approaching to life issues. I am hoping this will demonstrate the beauty of Scripture and help us grow in discernment as we hear the claims of other proposed models. Of course, this is all for the glory of God and the good of His people through the power of the gospel. —From the Introduction
