Counseling in African-American Communities: Biblical Perspectives on Tough Issues

Lee N. June, Sabrina D. Black, Willie Richardson. Zondervan, $14.99 (270pp) ISBN 978-0-310-24025-9

In Counseling in African-American Communities: Biblical Perspectives on Tough Issues, Dr. Lee N. June and Sabrina Black take on problems such as mental illness, addiction, grief, divorce, gambling and domestic violence. It's less about race than it is about issue-driven pastoral counseling, but many psychologists, therapists and pastors, particularly those in urban situations, will applaud the book's straight talk, accessible writing style and strong evangelical point of view.
