used books,books, How can the minister or the church help keep families together? Just what are the problems that the family faces today? Why does the family unit appear to be disintegrating? Charles William Stewart addresses these and other urgent questions in this highly informative book. While many researchers say the family cannot survive these swirling times of change, Dr. Stewart thinks otherwise. In THE MINISTER AS FAMILY COUNSELOR, he demonstrates the need for a return to the extended family. Since this is not possible in a literal sense, he shows how the church as a whole can become a surrogate family--and how a pastor or a church family counselor can be an effective trouble-shooter for today's families. With skillful use of charts and diagrams, Dr. Stewart shows the basic family structures and gives detailed analyses of the causes of family breakdown. A number of specific case studies are examined in which the need for a firm sense of "rootedness" is clearly shown. He demonstrates how a family that has strong ties among its members and a solid faith can withstand pressures from the outside. Since most families are not so "well rooted," Dr. Stewart makes use of the systems approach to solving family problems. He explains how the use of good psychology and a strong sense of social realities can make a minister the most effective type of family counselor. Through this approach, the pastor and the church can all be one "extended family"--one that is truly healthy and strong!
