To locate sources on your topic, I would suggest using counseling and religion-related databases. Please follow the steps below to access resources on your topic.
- Navigate to the main library website at liberty.edu/library.
- To the right, under Popular Databases select Browse All Databases.
- On the A-Z Databases page, select the letter P.
- In the list that comes up, select the link to Psychology & Behavioral Sciences Collection (EBSCO).
- Once you have opened up the database, select the "Searching: Psychology & Behavioral Sciences Collection" link just above the search bar.
- Ensure the following are selected: ATLA Religion Database with ATLASerials PLUS, Christian Periodical Index, Religion and Philosophy Collection, and Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection.
- Then click on Select.
- Use the different search bars at the top of the page. Try a search for assessing spirit* on the first line (Note: do not add quotations around assessing spirit, but please add an asterisk after "spirit."). On the second line, next to AND, type in counsel* (Note: do not add quotations around counsel, but please add an asterisk after "counsel."). So your search should look like this: assessing spirit* AND counsel*.
- Then click Search.
- When the results come up, look to the left side of the page and select Full Text.
- To read an article, select Access Now (PDF) or Access Options at the bottom of the article.
