Every year since 2012, I’ve collated a list of top/most important biblical counseling books. Several people asked me to collate those lists…and here you go. If my math is correct, you have links to posts about the 157 Most Important Biblical Counseling Books: 2012-2020.
I’ve selected these books on the basis of their:
- Biblical depth
- Relevance to life
- Practicality for one-another ministry
- Faithfulness to the sufficiency of Scripture
- Application to progressive sanctification
- And by accepting nominations from biblical counseling leaders.
These are books either written by a biblical counselor, or about Christian living, or important to biblical counselors.
