Virtually anyone can call themselves a biblical counselor with or without wisdom or discretion.

To be fair, I don't think she disagrees with that.

And she might say to prevent counselors from helping people with the word of God.

Presumably.

For my part, I'm religious, and I've been struggling myself for some time.

largely with motivation, depression, apathy, after some difficult stuff in my childhood.

And the reason is that I don't obey the Bible.

I keep choosing my own way instead of his.

I'm miserable because my actions don't align with my beliefs.

There's that idea again.

The next time I take the plunge into counseling, it will be from one of these folks, meaning a biblical counselor.

And he or she will challenge me on that, and I'll hate it.

But if the Lord is gracious, which he is, I'll face it and repent, and he'll fix it.

Again, I don't know how much we should dig in today.

You're on one.

And she's also not asking for advice.

Kind of sharing.

But yeah, this raises a lot of questions for me.

Dude, I'm in the same boat.
