The Care of Troublesome People
Learn how to approach troubled and troublesome people in your
congregation in ways that are not dismissive but are caring,
affirming, and grounded in God's grace. In The
Care of Troublesome People Dr. Wayne Oates combines family systems theory, insightful
analysis of five types of behavior that often create conflict
in churches, and biblically based approaches for dealing with
such behavior in this practical guide for pastoral care givers.
