Counseling & Confession: The Role of Confession and Absolution in Pastoral Counseling

A classic in pastoral counseling - updated with a new introduction by Rick W. Marrs. For over 25 years, this book has provided an authentically Christian resource for enriching pastoral counseling and deepening a ministry of reconciliation. Koehler weaves a multilayered account of the relationships between psychology, pastoral counseling, and the theology of individual confession and absolution, igniting a conversation that has only expanded in the years since. The introduction by Dr. Rick Marrs underscores the new developments in that conversation, bringing this classic work to life once again.
