He ends the section by showing how important his justice movements are and how big of an impact they have on the world. Putting these paragraphs in this order gives the reader the best understanding of the big picture King is trying to portray. 3.

A person also needs assistance finding security, which is the demand that they be unconditionally loved, accepted and cared for, now and forever [by God] (Crabb, 72). The counselor should seek to help meet these needs through biblical teaching and counseling techniques. 2. Development of problems and personal need (How do the issues come about?)

Sid Rai English HL Year One Haske 1-12-2009 IOP Topic: Kingsolver’s use of biblical allusions to portray ideas of Christianity and Jesus Christ in Anatole In the Poisonwood Bible, Barbara Kingsolver uses many aspects to portray the story, notably the reference to the bible and Christianity in general, to get relevant and important facts across to the reader. Some important elements of christianity are faith in God, knowledge of God, set of beliefs, the ten comandments (way of life) and living in harmony with the community. Kingsolver uses biblical allusions to portray some of these characteristics in Anatole by having parallels to the stories in the bible. As stated earlier, some ‘good elements’ of Christianity is faith in God’s ability to do his work. This means that, as Orleanna Price says, “God has his own mysterious ways”.
In many different ways, however, one way stands out the most and that is his ability to organize the information and make easy for the reader to understand the material. This information can be acknowledged by the way he prepared the information in a structured manner to assist the counselor. Another thing that is to be commended is the author’s ability to implement scriptures as a reference point to draw strength from God’s Word to support with life difficulties. One negative that has been determined in the text is the data regarding confrontation Wright emphases the counseling abilities such as empathy and he narrates these skills to actions Jesus put on a display. Wright also, narrates confrontation to articulating empathy for an individual in assisting them to make healthier choices.
Bradford goes on to write “praise the Lord, because He is good, and His mercies endure forever…let them which have been redeemed of the Lord, show how He hath delivered them from the hand of the oppressor” (Baym 61). Further more, John Winthrop also includes many religious passages in his literary works. On the journey to America Winthrop offered “A Model of Christian Charity” as a sermon of expectations for the Puritans in the New World. This sermon reminds the people of their obligation to God. Winthrop writes “there are two rules whereby we are to walk one towards another: justice and mercy…the moral law or the law of the Gospel” (Baym
Abstract This paper will focus on the development of spiritual formation over a lifespan. The paper will help understand that spiritual formation is the process of being conformed to the image of Jesus Christ by our own will. This paper will discuss how Spiritual formation can be achieved by daily living with Jesus Christ, spending time in prayer, daily reading and meditating, to be in tune with the Holy Spirit, and to truly love ourselves and others. The paper will support how the Holy Spirit within us leads us to grow spiritually. The paper will examine spiritual formation of the inner self in regards to a person’s character, thoughts, and attitude against Kohlberg’s and Piaget’s stages of moral thinking and Fowlers theory of faith development.
Because of this people will be more zealous in the pursuit of ministry and will want to encourage and exhort others which in turn will edify the church. Crabb's model for developing a counseling program has three levels of counseling. Crabb explains encouragement as congregational helping, exhortation and enlightenment as a select number of people who are knowledgeable in scripture receive training in how to interact and apply the knowledge in sessions (Crabb, L. 1977), which are similar to Clinton and Ohlschlager's lay ministry model. The lay ministry model suggests choosing mature, gifted, and qualified helpers and training them to minister to the hurting member of the congregation. Understanding the church will need to meet the needs of people from many different backgrounds, experiences, cultures incorporating a counseling program in the church may cause a more transparent session unlike a cognitive-behavior therapy session where the sessions are more structured and goal oriented (Andrews, L.
