Jay Adams

Jay Adams was a Christian counselor and founder of the discipline-focused approach called "biblical counseling." He emphasized using the Bible to address personal problems and behavioral issues, advocating for direct, truthful guidance rooted in Scripture rather than secular psychology. Adams believed that individuals could change through spiritual growth, repentance, and reliance on God's principles. His approach is often contrasted with traditional therapy, focusing on moral accountability and spiritual transformation as the path to mental and emotional well-being. Adams’ work has significantly influenced Christian counseling, promoting a biblically centered method of helping people overcome struggles.
