Theological Foundations for Counseling

J. V. Fesko

Baker Academic · Counseling
Published July 2026 · ISBN 9781540968760

From the publisher

Fesko charts a course beyond the biblical-versus-integrationist debate, grounded in the rich soil of classic Reformed theology. He argues that God has authored two books, Scripture and creation, and that faithful counselors must learn to read both well.
