Overview:
Success in any unique craft requires the development of key skills. This is true for lawyers in the courtroom, chefs in the kitchen, and even for those seeking to help a fellow believer wage war against pornography addiction. While most of us can live without the skills of a lawyer or chef, the skills of a counselor are vitally important for every believer who seeks to help in the process of making disciples.
