In Only Families in the Bible, characters from Abram to Ruth come alive, providing fresh insights for today's challenges. Barbara Laymon's imaginative approach involves behind-the-scenes therapists who counsel biblical figures and journal about their conversations. Informed by Laymon's background as a counselor, the therapists tell the stories of Scripture while describing the complexities of counseling. A creative group discussion guide invites readers to think alongside the therapists as they analyze family patterns. Only Families in the Bible offers a thoughtful view of families, then and now, and provides new perspectives on familiar Scriptures.
