This is a biblical counseling booklet by author and counselor Edward Welch on the topic of motive.  I read this booklet because it is a part of a wonderful counseling booklet series called “Resources for Changing Lives” published by Presbyterian and Reformed Publishing.  I have enjoyed and benefited from other titles in this series and this particular work also proved to be helpful, edifying and sanctifying!
