Christian Counseling
This individual, Mr. White, is going through a severe midlife crisis which is primarily manifested emotionally and economically, and is not uncommon for people in the U.S. after they have reached 40 years of age (Wethington, 2000, p. 85). Mr. White has had immense difficulties with his personal life and professional life. His wife of a few years had divorced him and moved to the other side of the country where she was raising their two daughters with another man. When she incurred legal problems, she required White's presence so the state would not take her daughters away. White currently lives with his ex-wife and their two daughters, who primarily function as his support system. The girls are both within five years old; there is no romance between White and his ex-wife. White's parents are both in their 90's and offer limited support across the country in California, where he was living with them after his divorce.
White's temperament is tenuous at best. He is extremely insecure regarding his previous failures as a husband and a parent, and is attempting to make up for them now. He also is decidedly choleric, and believes that his opinions and methods for doing things are better than most everyone else's (which contributed to his initial divorce). Despite having lived with his daughters and ex-wife for eight months, White has failed to procure a job. He worked sporadically as a disc jockey in California, which was his greatest accomplishment other than producing children. To his credit, however, White is a devout Methodist and tries to incorporate Christian principles into his daily activities. White has attempted to compensate for his lack of job and frustration at having no real emotional connection with anyone other than his daughters -- who are just now getting to know him -- by functioning as a maintenance man around his residence. He is so ardent about sweeping, raking, and doing things his way that he battered his next door neighbor, whom he perceives as some sort of threat to his manhood, and faces criminal charges.
The preceding case study indicates that White has two distinct advantages in his favor that can assist...
presidential election of 1992 was a tight race, compared to others in history. The struggle between the Clinton camp, which focused on a platform involving the economy, the Bush camp, who focused on a platform whose basis was trust and taxes, and the Perot camp, who relied on a business-style economic platform, all combined to form one of the most interesting and changing races in recent years.

Social Work Exercise The imaginary recording helped me to examine the language that I use commonly, and listen for embedded biases. I noticed that I assumed that the client could hear me and see me, rather than acknowledge the fact that the client could be deaf or visually impaired. It might be helpful to establish immediately whether the client requires assistive technologies when understanding the types of services we provide. I also
Today he is not bitter towards them at all; he believes that all they did was what they thought to be in his best interest at the time.

Congregational CareIntroductionThe biblical idea of the shepherd is integrally related to congregational care in the Christian tradition: �The Lord is my shepherd,� states the psalmist (Psalm 23:1); �I am the good shepherd,� Jesus teaches his disciples (John 10:11). Christian leaders assumed the position and identity of shepherds in the early church, tending to the member of their congregations like a shepherd does for his sheep. Similarly, the phrase care clarifies
