Early family pain was the catalyst that shaped June’s compassionate heart. Later, as a youth director, she became aware of the need for sound biblical counsel. This led June to a lifelong commitment to providing God’s Truth for Today’s Problems.
After years of teaching and research, she developed Counseling Through The Bible, a scripturally-based counseling course addressing approximately 100 topics, such as marriage and parenting, depression and anger, stress and suicide. Now a 5-volume set, this proprietary Biblical Counseling Library “moves people from wrong thinking to right thinking … and from wrong living to right living.”
PeggySue's books have been translated into five languages and sold internationally. A frequent radio guest, PeggySue writes for magazines, instructs at writers conferences, is a writing coach, and speaks at corporate, home-school, and women's events. PeggySue serves as board member for RemedyLIVE, where "We chat, we listen, we love.".
In Bonding with Your Child through Boundaries, biblical counselor June Hunt, along with PeggySue Wells, combines biblical hope and practical help to motivate parents to understand and practice appropriate boundaries with their children. Discover the essential role of boundaries, how they contribute to the development of a child’s character, and how they equip kids for a lifetime of learning. Practical “how-to” chapters illustrate how to make boundaries work—guiding parents as they cultivate happy homes and build healthy relationships with their children.
