Introduction

In his class work of literature, Future Shock, Alvin Toffler spoke of when our culture would change so radically that the human mind could not cope with it. I believe we are seeing that come to pass. In the early years of my ministry, counseling was almost unheard of. The need seemed to be rare. Today, a Pastor who has no counseling skills has a tough time finding a job. People deal with emotional pain in several different ways. I would like to address four of them today. [A sermon by Dr. Arnold Lastinger. Used with permission.]
