My plan today was to talk about all things counseling… secular, spiritual, and Biblical counseling.

But God has given me more homework. More studying and reading one more book before He has me address this topic.

The topic of counseling is serious and causing a lot of division in our churches.

It’s even possible that lives have been lost based on counseling that was in error.

God has challenged me to fine-tune my beliefs, and to be very careful about presenting information until I have researched it fully and present it as truth.

I believe this is a challenge He has for all of us. Our beliefs should not be founded on emotions, our own agenda, the fear of man or on tradition but founded on truth. It is something we need to continually evaluate ourselves on, but especially as we spread opinions and beliefs on these topics around mental illness.

This episode is an honest update on the behind-the-scenes preparation for these episodes as I continue to study for the remainder of Mental Health Awareness Month. There will be at least two more episodes, possibly three, on this topic before we return to our regular content.

Do you have something you want me to address? Let me know. I am open to your feedback or questions! Email me at jennifer@jenniferskaw.com
