I’ve been reading thru this and will continue to use it as a reference in counseling and mentoring. Great topical lists of scriptures for many issues people are facing.

Great reference for common sinful response
Easy to read and reference when working with a client. Makes the counseling smoother when side tracked with a problem that has not been dealt with.

As a christian who struggles, this has brought me insight on what God wants in my life. This will also help me help others on their journey as well.

John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

I have more or less been reading this in a devotional way. A few of the designated scriptures might not be helpful in some of the situations the books suggests. If one can use it without being glib, it seems like it could be good tool.
