Hungarian Summary:

A szerző a keresztény segítségnyújtás öt lépését bemutatva, számos esettanulmányt ismertetve kíván laikusoknak és hivatásos lelkigondozóknak segíteni abban, hogy felkészültebben és hatékonyabban tudjanak szembenézni barátaik, illetve ismerőseik lelki, érzelmi és egyéb problémáival. Worthington kitűnő műve – rámutatva arra, hogy az evangéliumi emberszeretet szamaritánusi szolgálata nemcsak felelősség, hanem közös kaland is – mérföldkövet jelenthet az igeszerű lelkigondozás hazai gyakorlatában.

English Summary:

"I have a problem. . . . Could you help me?"
Ever hear this plea over lunch or late at night in a dormitory? Someone has come to us for help. "Who, me?" we blurt out and then frantically think, "What can I say? How can I help?"
Everett Worthington guides us as we respond to just situations. First he explains what Christian helping really is, what causes problems and how they can be solved. Then he takes us step by step through the five stages of counseling, from understanding what's going on to helping people work through their problems. Throughout, he describes the delicate dynamics of moving into a helping relationship, providing aid, then moving back into the give-and-take of friendship.
Here is a book to help Christians put love into action through bearing other people's burdens.
