Last week Carey Hardey gave a seminar on counseling titled plumbing the depths. Here are the highlights:


Big Picture Issues to look for in counseling

1. Wrong Goals
2. Lust
3. Wrong Priotities
4. Fear of Man
5. Love of Self
6. Wrong View of God
7. Lack of Trust in God
8. Pride
9. Blameshifting

These are some major issues that will present themselves in actions like anger, depression, etc.
If you are anything like me you have repented about each and everyone of these issues.

Here are some steps to pick up on these issues:

1. Gather Data
2. Make a Biblical Interpretation
3. Be Familiar with Scripture
4. Give Biblical Answers
