| Итог: | More and more people become victims of or are affected by crime that is seemingly running rampant in the world. The existing support services cannot cope with the number of people in need of help. Christian counsellors can and should assist in this regard because they have much to offer, such as compassion and love. Christian counselling has a place and role to play in society with its ultimate goal being the facilitation of spiritual growth. The perceived problem is the fact that there are few trained Christian counsellors and a lack of acceptance of such counsellors by authorities and the community. The suggested solution is that the church (as the body of Christ) should assume a more prominent role in rectifying the situation, by helping to change the perceptions about the role Christian counsellors can play, and by improving their training. |
