Christians Should Avoid Secular Therapy | Ep 999

Today we’re joined by Dr. Dale Johnson, executive director of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors and host of the “Truth & Love Podcast,” to discuss biblical counseling vs. Christian counseling, differences between counseling men and women, and problems with current “therapy culture.” How should people decide whether or not they need counseling? What should parents do about children who struggle with mental health issues? And what does it mean to be mentally and emotionally healthy?
