Case Conceptualization: Biblical Wellness (B-Well) Approach
by David Jones Ken Miller Kevin HullCase Conceptualization: A Biblical Wellness (B-Well) Approach is developed in a stepwise progression for students and counseling practitioners. The book begins by establishing a clear understanding of wellness and then provides an overview of biblical worldview essentials.

Next, case conceptualization (CC) is addressed. It is here that you will gain an understanding of the CC process and how to use the B-Well model in that process. Finally, the last chapters deliver an application of the B-Well model by specific theory by counseling discipline―school counseling, clinical mental health counseling, addiction counseling, pastoral counseling, marriage and family counseling, and special populations―using theories such as solution-focused, cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy, Adlerian, psychodynamic, family systems, play therapy, and others. <p><p> Case Conceptualization: A Biblical Wellness (B-Well) Approach is intended for students, counselors, counselor educators, and other helping professionals who desire to operate from wellness and a Christian worldview when conducting a clinical case conceptualization. This book seeks to offer the student, practitioner, and educator a coherent case conceptualization process by bridging the gap between wellness and a Christian worldview.

Case Studies in Society, Religion, and Bioethics
by Sana LoueThis book explores, through case studies, the interplay between religion, culture, government, and politics in diverse societies on questions arising in the domain of bioethics. The case studies draw from multiple disciplinary perspectives, including history, theology, law, bioethics, public policy, science, and medicine. The text's global perspective permits a comparison of the differing approaches adopted by countries facing similar bioethical quandaries and the extent to which religion has or has not been instrumental in addressing such dilemmas. Secular and religious societies across the globe are being confronted with complex questions involving religious belief and the extent to which specific religious perspectives have in the past or should in the future be adopted as official policy. Bioethical issues involving the interplay of religion and government have become particularly notable in recent years. How these issues are resolved has major implications for individuals, healthcare providers, and the future of medical research and medical care. Topics explored among the chapters include: Homosexuality: Sin, Crime, Pathology, Identity, BehaviorMedical Error: Truthtelling, Apology, and ForgivenessRefusal of Medical TreatmentMedical Deportation Case Study: Nazism, Religion, and Human ExperimentationThe New Frontier: Cloning Case Studies in Society, Religion, and Bioethics will find an engaged audience among researchers and scholars in history, religion/theology, medicine, and bioethics interested in the influence of religion on bioethical decision-making. Students—particularly upper-level undergraduate and graduate students interested in bioethics, humanities, and theology—will find the text helpful in understanding the processes through which religion may serve as a basis for both societal policy and law and individual decision-making in health-related matters.

Case for Zionism, The: Why Christians Should Support Israel
by Thomas IceThe modern state of Israel has been a nation for almost 70 years. When she was formed and fought her early wars of existence, most Bible-believing Christians believed there was a real connection with what was going on in the Middle East and Bible prophecy that predicts an end-time return of the Jews to their land. While support for Israel remains high in most evangelical communities, we are seeing the beginning of a decline, especially among younger evangelicals, who question whether modern Israel really relates to end-time Bible prophecy. The Case for Zionism attempts to bring together biblical, historical, and legal arguments for the legitimacy of the startup nation known as Israel as it: Explains controversies such as antisemitism and Replacement Theology Details the biblical and legal rights of Modern Israel Explores the prophetic nature and future of Israel. In this presentation, Thomas Ice answers many of the contemporary arguments being used by both secular and religious communities to undermine what he believes is the hand of God at work in our own day.

Cassian's Conferences: Scriptural Interpretation and the Monastic Ideal (Routledge New Critical Thinking in Religion, Theology and Biblical Studies)
by Christopher J. KellyThis book explores Cassian's use of scripture in the Conferences, especially its biblical models to convey his understanding of the desert ideal to the monastic communities of Gaul. Cassian intended the scriptures and, implicitly, the Conferences to be the voices of authority and orthodoxy in the Gallic environment. He interprets familiar biblical characters in unfamiliar ways that exemplify his ideal. By imitating their actions the monk enters a seamless lineage of authority stretching back to Abraham. This book demonstrates how the scriptures functioned as a dynamic force in the lives of Christian monks in the fourth and fifth centuries, emphasizes the importance of Cassian in the development of the western monastic tradition, and offers an alternative to the sometimes problematic descriptions of patristic exegesis as "allegory" or "typology". Cassian has been described as little more than a provider of information about Egyptian monasticism, but a careful reading of his work reveals a sophisticated agenda to define and institutionalize orthodox monasticism in the Latin West.

Cast It Out: The Call to Set People Free
by Greg LockeIf Jesus spent one-third of His ministry casting out demons, why do so many churches virtually ignore deliverance? By reading this book, I will understand the purpose behind casting out demonic entities and why all Christians are called to help set the captives free. For years, Baptist pastor Greg Locke believed deliverance ministry and supernatural signs and wonders were just hyped-up &“charismaniac&” nonsense. But then God removed his denominational lenses and showed him what the Bible actually says about the gifts of the Holy Spirit—and his life and ministry haven&’t been the same. Suddenly, people started getting healed in his services. Miracles and wonders abounded. And Locke was casting out demons in Sunday services that lasted until 2:30 the next morning. Today, the firebrand preacher is well-known for his popular documentary Come Out in Jesus&’ Name and teaches others how to help people get free of demonic oppression. In Cast It Out, the third book in his Spiritual Warfare Series, Locke testifies of what the Lord has done in his life and ministry and shares the biblical truth and inspired revelations God used to erase all his doubts about the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. In what he considers his most important work yet, Locke addresses: What the Bible says about deliverance Whether Christians can be demonized Popular objections to deliverance ministry How Jesus dealt with demons Locke believes the church is on the cusp of the most important spiritual awakening in the history of Christianity and we must all be prepared to engage in what Jesus spent one-third of His ministry doing: casting out demons. In this book, he offers biblical answers to the most pressing deliverance questions and equips readers to help others find true freedom and healing in Christ.
