dc.description.abstractIn today's world, Pastoral Counseling has become an important aspect of evangelization. Many Christians and would be Christians are faced with the negative effect of the secular world. This affects their worldview and the way they react to problems in life. Most Akans are stuck in the dilemma between good and bad cultural values, which is brought by the modem secular world. To understand how the Mans react to problems in their life, one has to understand the Akan universe, that is, their culture within the entire community. This work is meant to help the new pastoral counselor among the Akans to learn the good cultural values of the people in order to be able to help them react to problems in their lives. It is also meant to help the new Pastor/Priest among the Mans to learn how to spread the Good News of Christ without ignoring the strong, but good cultural values of the Akans. It is also to draw the attention of the pastoral counselor that, the Bible is an indispensable source book in pastoral counseling. The pastoral Counselor is therefore advised to use the scripture in his/her counseling while keeping the culture of the people in minden_US
