Many pastors feel overwhelmed and ill-equipped to deal with the counseling issues in their congregations.

But pastors are actually better equipped for counseling than they realize. Hermeneutics, homiletics, pastoral care, and counseling all share a common foundation in the field of interpretation.

With this book, pastors can learn to interpret people with the same expertise they use to interpret Scripture.

Read Me Like a Book offers a simple, practical, and theoretically sound approach to help pastors leverage their exegetical skills to improve their pastoral counseling.
