counseling context by applying practical and hopeful biblical
principles to real life situations and problems. Christians who
find they are struggling with various problems need an understanding
of the awesome resources available in biblical solutions that offer real
hope and practical help.
2)From Pride to Humility
Pride is a form of self-worship and is often at the root of dysfunctional
behavior as well as addiction. These pages describe the various
manifestations of pride and how to learn true humility.
