Join Marissa Franks Burt and Kelsey Kramer McGinnis In the Church Library for a sampling of books that represent different elements of popular Christian teaching.

Episode One closed with the note that the next episode would cover Tedd Tripp's book Shepherding A Child's Heart, but that will be the topic for Episode Three.

Note: In this episode, when Marissa is describing the history of the nouthetic movement she indicates that Jay Adams was studying to be a counselor and that is when he became disillusioned with pyschology. This needs further clarification: Adams at that time was shadowing a psychologist in order to head up a Christian counseling program at Westminster. So while he was learning about psychology, he was not in a formal program to become a psychologist or something of that nature.
