The 5 Lies of Panic Attacks

When panic attacks occur, the sufferer hopes that the terror will stop instantly and never return. This is a certain truth about panic attacks: no one wants them, ever. Panic attacks are brief episodes of intense dread accompanied by physical symptoms like an irregular or rapid heartbeat and sweaty palms. When you’re in the middle […] The post The 5 Lies of Panic Attacks appeared first on Lucy Ann Moll.

Learning to Love Waiting, Part 2

In part 1 we looked at Psalm 25:3 which promises that, “Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame; they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.” What an amazing positive promise to the those who wait for the Lord and also a warning to those who don’t wait on him (i.e.... read more The post Learning to Love Waiting, Part 2 appeared first on Counseling with Confidence and Compassion.

When Sleep Departs

Why is it that the middle of the night thoughts are always the worst? It seems to me that the cares and concerns of life gang up and all decide to visit when one cannot sleep. These are the fretful hours, the ones where minutes tick by like hours as you toss and turn on your bed.  The post When Sleep Departs appeared first on Biblical Counseling for Women.

The Gospel Brings Healing

I find that many Christians get uncomfortable when talking about God and healing. To discuss God brining physical healing raises controversial questions about spiritual gifts. To discuss emotional healing seems […] The post The Gospel Brings Healing appeared first on IBCD.

Good Cop, Bad Cop in the Home

The good cop, bad cop approach may work well when eliciting criminal confessions, but it was never intended for the home. You might notice it when one parent says, “Don’t tell your father [or mother]” and then modifies or subverts what the other parent said. These parents may have any number of reasons for their […] The post Good Cop, Bad Cop in the Home appeared first on CCEF.

It Would Be Amusing . . .

. . . If it weren’t so shockingly sad! These days a spate of books and/or articles declaring that we are in the second generation of biblical (nouthetic) counseling has been appearing. These, typically, declare that we have moved on from earlier concepts and approaches and now have opted for more kindly and thoughtful views. ...

Do You Practice?

There is little we are called to in life that is purely intuitive. There is little that truly matters to our lives, yet comes to us innately. To the contrary, almost everything that is important and almost everything that matters requires practice. What matters most in life is love. We are called to love the Lord with our whole heart, soul, mind, and strength and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Our great divine calling is love—and this is a calling that requires practice.See AlsoWhen Unanimity is the Enemy of UnityWhy Your Singing Matters Even If You Think You Can’t Sing.“The Discipline of Spiritual Discernment” Blog Tour (Day 11)

A La Carte (May 6)

Good morning. Grace and peace to you. Today’s Kindle deals include several excellent titles from Crossway. At the top of the list, I’d put Tom Schreiner’s The Joy of Hearing. It’s a good time to catch up on an excellent and growing series. A Response to Dr. John MacArthur’s Statement on Mental Health Last week a video was being passed around that showed some statements by John MacArthur on mental health. I share this well-reasoned response because I think it offers a thoughtful and well-informed model of gracious disagreement. “To be clear, this article is not an attack on the person or character of Dr. MacArthur, a Christian brother for whom I have much respect and who has been a bulwark of solid reformed theology for many decades. Nevertheless, there are several things within the statement that, as a professional working in Christian psychiatry I would like to address…” How Much Should Churches Pay Their Pastors? Churches often struggle to know how much to pay their pastors. This article takes an interesting approach, and while the context is Canadian the principles should apply anywhere.

(Sponsored) Love Is No Longer My God Heidi Tai: “I once believed that love was a feeling—sizzle and spark, sustained by soulmates and kindred spirits. Love was that special something.
