The Gospel, Counseling and the Church

by Deepak Reju

Outside of CCEF's national conference, there are very few counseling conferences that are worth attending.  Most are not worth the time, energy, or expense because they don't think carefully about the relationship of the gospel, counseling and the church.  So, I was excited to find out recently about THE GOSPEL: Counseling and the Church, which is being held on Aug 25-26 in Louisville, KY.  If you are anywhere near Louisville, you might consider attending.  Paul Tripp is the keynote speaker, and there are several churches who have counselors committed to a Biblical Counseling model who are doing breakout workshops.

By the way, some of you might be interested in reading David Powlison's article on the nature of criticism (which also responds to critiques of Biblical counseling).  If so, click here.
