In Luke 14, Jesus tells a parable of a man who gave a great supper. None of the people initially invited could attend. The man then told his servant to invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, and the blind. Applying this parable to our world today, we should reach out to individuals who have experienced trauma or mental illness or those who may be struggling to overcome an addiction. Joel Wells encourages us to reach these overlooked people and lead them to the life-changing power of Jesus Christ. This book will be invaluable to any church leader or layperson interested in starting a counseling ministry or being a part of a ministry of helps.
