"David Powlison has profoundly impacted my ministry by teaching me the discipline of perceiving life in light of Scripture rather than the other way around. David's table scraps, his most ordinary comments, have nourished me for years. This book is a feast of biblical insight." - Ken Sande

"With renewed lucidity and boundless creativity, Powlison demonstrates that the Bible, when properly understood, speaks with the full weight of God's authority. This book will help counselors and all those who want to live and minister in a distinctively biblical way." - Wayne Mack

"Toward a Renewed Helping Relationship will transform your perspective and center your faith in the all-sufficient truth of Scripture and God, its author. I highly recommend it." - Elyse Fithzpatrick

"Powlison encourages counselors to speak directly to people rather than using abstract language. In this excellent book, he uses many biblical passages that speak to the heart. Reading it will prove to be a compelling experience for counselors and for anyone who will want to apply God's Word to their lives." - John Frame

"If you want to move in the right direction, both in terms of personal spiritual growth and as a counselor, read these wisdom-filled words. Powlison's understanding of the convergence of not-so-accessible theology and its daily practice never ceases to amaze." - Carol Cornish

"Powlison's insight into the human soul is imbued with a rare wisdom that comes from above. The author, steeped in the Bible, remarkably humane while exalting Christ, is unmatched in the field of Christian counseling. The essays presented in Toward a Renewed Helping Relationship are profound, poetic, and practical." - Sam R. Williams
