I was reading a young lady’s post about why she is no longer a Christian, and this was one of her reasons, “There many other books that could have been in the canon – and in some cases, were in the canon but got removed later.” Here’s what I think about that. What this person […]
More To It Than Mere Words
I came across this blog post today and it made me sad. It made me sad for two reasons: first, I have a lot of books by Bob Kellemen (who’s blog it is) and he is condoning and published the article. And second, because the author seems to be so ignorant of the world in which he […]
Biblical Counseling—A different approach
I want to describe, explain, and to define Biblical counseling in a way that is God-centered, not man or problem-centered. Biblical counseling is, after all, Biblical. The Bible is God-centered first of all. Men come into the picture because God, who starts it all, puts man there. And not until the sixth day. “In the […]
Adams On Psychology
“In my opinion, advocating, allowing and practicing psychiatric and psychoanalytical dogmas within the church is every bit as pagan and heretical (and therefore perilous) as propagating the teachings of some of the most bizarre cults.

ACBC And LBGTQ

25 Theses on Common Grace, Natural Revelation, and Pastoral Care
by Douglas Wilson You can read this in all its original glory here. One of the most common areas where syncretism—an attempt to marry two incompatible worldviews—is making massive inroads into Christian faith and practice is in the area of counseling and therapy. In the conviction that this is a very bad development, as well […]
Counseling And Bible Study
Counseling sounds like something the professionals do, but how should a Christian think about the relationship between their daily Bible reading and how it is equipping them to counsel those in their life? Right now our church and others are doing what is called the Bible Reading Challenge. The purpose of this program is to help people get into […]
We’re Pointers
I thought I would take a few more minutes to talk some more about this article. I wish there were a way to talk about the article without seeming to attack the author. I don’t know anything about Lucy Ann Moll and I don’t have any ill will toward her. I favor giving her the […]
Baals Of Our Day
Yesterday I got all fired up about a Christian writing a psychological article on a Biblical Counseling web site. I could hardly contain myself and I may have skipped a few steps for some. I tried to tone it down by asking questions and saying very little. I thought I would go back today and […]
