What would you like readers to take away from the book?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bob Kellemen: <\/strong>\u201cI had two assumptions as I wrote the book. First, pastors, counselors, educators, and church leaders are passionate about equipping God\u2019s people for every-member ministry as biblical counselors and one-another ministers. Second, they are tired of seeing great effort expended on \u2018programs\u2019 that don\u2019t launch, don\u2019t last, or don\u2019t result in leaving a legacy of loving leaders. So am I. That\u2019s why in <em>Equipping Biblical Counselors <\/em>I offer a biblical, field-tested, best-practice approach to equipping God\u2019s people for biblical counseling.
