Book Synopsis The Ministry of the Christian School Guidance Counselor by : James W. Deuink
Download or read book The Ministry of the Christian School Guidance Counselor written by James W. Deuink and published by BJU Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to help the reader recognize the importance of pupil personnel services in the Christian school and to provide assistance to those who will initiate such a program in their particular schools. Pupil personnel services present a special problem to Christian school administrators. Even the smallest school needs all the services we discuss in this volume. However, when the budget is limited, many school officials are reluctant to hire an additional staff member. Recognizing the problem a small school faces in providing proper personnel, we have made a number of suggestions of ways to combine administrative duties with the traditional role of the counselor. We have divided the various duties of the guidance counselor into three categories: administrative, counseling, and clerical. Not all of the counselor's activities lend themselves to these divisions, but we have followed this approach in the interest of all readers, including those who may not be familiar with the guidance aspect of education. The first three chapters provide the foundation for the remainder of the book. These three chapters, along with Chapter 14, are addressed to the administrator and others responsible for the overall supervision of the school. Chapters 4 through 13 provide instruction for the one responsible for carrying out the counselor's duties. It is our conviction that the ministry of the local Christian school can be greatly enhanced by a well-planned program of pupil personnel services. We trust that you will give serious consideration to the ideas presented here. - Preface.
Book Synopsis Christian School Teacher by : A. Duane Hooper
Download or read book Christian School Teacher written by A. Duane Hooper and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many Christian "school teachers" are fully familiar with God's biblical mandates for their vocation? School teachers inherently hold a powerful influence over students, for good or bad. This sobering reality should motivate all school administrators, especially in Christian schools, to ensure that their teachers are spiritually qualified. Academic qualifications for teachers are essential, but spiritual qualifications are critical for meeting the biblical goals of education. In fact, it is the spiritual motivation and qualification of teachers that should be the greatest area of concern during the process of selecting faculty members to serve in Christian schools. Veteran teacher and Christian counselor Hooper offers twenty-one defining principles that separate Christian teachers from those who are not Christian. Do today's school teachers make the grade? This book is a must read for all who aspire to serve God effectively in the school classroom. Duane Hooper is a school teacher, principal, ordained minister, and board certified Christian counselor. His ministry was providentially redirected from the pastorate to education in 1990 when he began serving as teacher at Bay Area Christian School in League City, Texas. While serving as teacher and junior high principal, his passion for Christian education intensified. Concerning the influence held by teachers, especially in light of Christ's love for children, Duane was burdened regarding the need for Christian teachers to model not just Spiritual fruit, but Christ's express love for children. Duane's love for students is manifested in his several nominations to Who's Who Among America's Teachers. With both masters and doctoral degrees in Christian education and a Ph.D. in Christian Counseling, Duane has an ardent passion to share what he believes to be a Bible-based vision for the ministries of Christian school teachers-whether serving in Christian or public schools.

Dr. Daniel Egeler, President of the Association of Christian Schools International Clear Focus encourages and equips Christian educators to regain vision, purpose, and fulfillment in ministry. With a passion for discipleship, Stephen shares rich insights through compelling stories and biblical applications.

Follow Him through any day of His ministry, and you will see His focus is always on a who. Ours should be too.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore the concept of formation in pastoral counseling from a variety of perspectives Two dozen of the most prominent clinicians and scholars in the field reflect on The Formation of Pastoral Counselors from clinical, theological and theoretical perspectives. This unique book explores the challenges to the personal and professional formation of pastoral counselors in a cultural and historic context that’s radically different from the era when the profession first emerged as a specialized ministry. Contributors examine formation from a variety of contexts and perspectives, including spirituality and gender, address theological education and intercultural issues, and present emerging models for pastoral counselors. The Formation of Pastoral Counselors is a practical guide for educators working to shape curricula and training programs to the shifting context in which pastoral counselors are formed for ministry, service, and lifelong learning. This unique book examines ideas about appropriate content and processes for the formation of pastoral care professionals and looks at specialized contextual training models that form their emerging identities. The book’s contributors call on extensive experience in pastoral theology, care, and counseling to explore the essential components of formation across different contexts; how those contextual realities change the delivery systems; the epistemological nature of formation; reasons for the limited roles that formal theological education and spiritual experience seem to play at the moment; and why formation is rarely formally addressed in pastoral counseling training. Topics discussed in The Formation of Pastoral Counselors include: the turn to formation the goals of theological education core elements of pastoral theology developing spiritual practices diversity pastoral counseling training programs race and ethnicity in the formation of pastoral counselors cultural identity intercultural contexts practical relevancy in training gender identity and sexual orientation economic disparity Models and practices examined in The Formation of Pastoral Counselors include: parallel charting clinician narratives group supervision Benedictine spirituality academic and clinical training at the Claremont School of Theology the model of formation at the Virginia Institute of Pastoral Care (VIPCare) and much more The Formation of Pastoral Counselors is an essential guide for pastoral counselors, faculty in pastoral theological care and counseling, and training directors in pastoral counseling centers.

Book Synopsis The Professionalization of Pastoral Care by : T. Dale Johnson
Download or read book The Professionalization of Pastoral Care written by T. Dale Johnson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the organization and structure of the church in America was altered in the early 1900s to meet modern demands, the role of the pastorate became more specialized to adapt to the burdens of the new, “efficient” structure. In 1920, Gaines Dobbins utilized the business efficiency model at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary to formulate a distinct ecclesiology. Discontent with traditional methods of instruction in theological education, Dobbins sought to implement theories and methodologies from modern educationalists. He adopted a psychologized educational methodology and utilized the psychology of religion as an empirical measure of the soul, human nature, and human behavior. Use of the social sciences seemed to grant Dobbins, as a practitioner, academic respectability within the realm of theological education. Both the professionalization that resulted from Dobbins’s efficiency standards, and a working theory of human nature derived from psychological models, were synthesized into a specialized system of pastoral care. Dobbins followed the new shape of pastoral theology in America, adopting Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) as the model for pastoral training. As a result, CPE became an integral part of the curriculum at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary for over sixty years, and spread to influence many other SBC entities.
