  • Excellent episode

    I really enjoyed Episode 56 but I would like the entire resource that was discussed. I only see the Feelings Wheel without explanation of how to use it. I’d also like to see the Heart Journal he uses please.

  • Great resource

    I’m enjoying this podcast and the dialogue on engaging Biblically a wide spectrum of issues ranging from discipleship to specific mental health problems, to interviews with leading thinkers and writers in the Biblical counseling field. Very helpful for anyone, licensed or not, who is curious about, interested in, or passionate about Biblical counseling.

  • Best I Have Heard

    As a secular trained Christian counselor I was excited to find this podcast but have been disappointed with the content. I found this podcast on EMDR to be what I have expected from this podcast, evaluating a therapeutic approach from a Christian perspective with someone who has trained and has used EMDR. The show moved into the content without the usual bickering of the co-hosts (which I find to be inappropriate for Christian counselors). I hope that future programs will present similar rele... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP. 201 Bonus Episode: Called to Counsel Conference 2026 - Fundamentals of Biblical Counseling Track Invitation W/Emily Dempster
Q: Emily, could you just kind of run through the sessions, who the speaker is, and just maybe a quick brief thought on each of those sessions and maybe how they build off each other?
Emily outlines a progression from theology of care to starting well, story work, heart dynamics, the character of God in counseling, and ending well, with a panel applying the methods to a case study.
EP. 203 Breaking Free from Codependency: A Biblical Perspective on Burdens, Boundaries, and Trusting God W/Counseling & Soul Care Director Chris Minott
Q: Could you just start walking through the origin of codependency and then defining it biblically in relation to culture?
The origin tied to the late 1970s involved one person in a relationship facing addiction and the other trying to manage the chaos, leading to ongoing rescue and identity found in the codependent. Biblically, it's relational idolatry where people depend on others for love and acceptance instead of trusting God.
EP. 199 Bonus Episode Called to Counsel Conference 2026 - Mental Health Track Invitation W/Track Leader Jeremy Lelek
Q: Who should come to this track and why is it valuable for both licensed professionals and lay leaders?
Licensed professionals will gain in-depth, scripture-driven analysis beyond surface-level references, while pastors and lay counselors will receive a solid theological framework to engage with psychiatric labels in a compassionate, biblically informed way.
EP. 199 Bonus Episode Called to Counsel Conference 2026 - Mental Health Track Invitation W/Track Leader Jeremy Lelek
Q: Could you talk a little bit about the objectives here and share about your track team?
The objective is to bring scripture to bear on complex mental health diagnoses, integrate biblical anthropology with empirical insights, and provide practical tools for the church to support people with these conditions. The track team includes experienced clinicians and theologians who will unpack specific disorders and connect them to biblical counseling.
EP. 194 Missions Mini-Series: Christ is Better (Cristo es Mejor) W/Church Planting Pastor Kike Torres
Q: How do you implement biblical counseling when it comes to the church planting process?
Biblical counseling is integrated into the church planting process as part of the church's DNA rather than a standalone class, fostering a culture of care and mutual support.
