This means he’s a credible source to pay attention to and take into consideration. This leader shows his intentions of defending his people to the best of his ability. He changes to third person but talks about himself when he says, “He has fought for his countrymen, the squaws and papooses, against white men, who came, year after year, to cheat them and take away their lands” (qtd. in Drake). In this section, Black Hawk actually uses both ethos and pathos.
We must be patient and be able to tolerate varying amounts of floundering, confusion and false starts. We also must allow the individual to take their time to discover their own solutions while being honest with them without being judgemental. If for instance, an individual is showing lack of progress, we need to continue to motivate them and empower them to help themselves. The individual will be experiencing low self-esteem in these circumstances and we need to remind them of past successes. If progress is being made, we need to continue to encourage them and congratulate their progress.
In order to be served, we must first learn to serve. We need to submit, totally, to the person God leads us to in order to build us up.

It is the heart of a servant”.
A COMPARISON PAPER: CRABB’S EFFECTIVE BIBLICAL COUNSELING Dr. Larry Crabb believes that “God has ordained the local church to be His primary instrument to tend to his people's aches and pains.” He lays out a counseling plan for the local church to use in his book, Effective Biblical Counseling: A Model for Helping Caring Christians Become Capable Counselors (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 1977). In this standard textbook for Christian counselors, he reminds us that people “will never be happy if [they are] concerned primarily with becoming happy (Crabb, page 22).” The real goal of life and thus the path of happiness is glorifying God and serving others. SUMMARY: The author’s theory/methodology 1. Primary goal (What is the desired outcome?) Dr. Crabb shares that the biblical goal of counseling goals should be to help people move over to the path of righteousness (Crabb, 28); and help them move up in their maturity to be like Christ (Crabb, 29).

Rules and Regulations: Rules and regulations are put in place to maintain the expectation of the service; so that tasks run smoothly and there is a certain routine to be followed, for safety and efficiency. Tasks will get done effectively and to the best of the service's ability. Rules and regulations are also to get tasks done as quick as possible, but to a high standard.

But the Savior taught that true freedom comes only from following Him: “If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:31–32). God gives commandments for our benefit. They are loving instructions for our happiness and for our physical and spiritual well
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. For through me your days will be many, and years will be added to your life.
