I wholeheartedly recommend this series of mini-books by Shepherd Press. They explain the very real problems that people face in life from a solidly biblical perspective. They describe these problems experientially by using true stories and illustrations. They present the biblical solution to these problems, making it clear how God wants to solve them by changing the hearts of the people involved. These mini-books accomplish this through Word-based, Gospel-driven applications to life and by encouraging people to make the changes that will enable them to walk in faith and obedience to Christ. I will certainly use these mini-books as homework for my counselees and will recommend them to my students. —Wayne Mack, Professor of Biblical Counseling at Grace School of Ministry in Pretoria, South Africa

These mini-books are exactly the kind of books you’d want to have available to you at church – short, biblical and inexpensive enough to give away. —Tim Challies, Blogger
