Větrné elektrárny – Ano nebo ne? - Tři obce na Svitavsku ukončily anketu pro občany právě na toto téma. Dotazování v Janově, Čisté a Karli trvalo celý minulý týden a včerejší večer patřil sčítání hlasů.

Beseda nad Božím Slovem - to je pořad Séla manželů Petra a Markéty Šanderových z husitské fary v Kuřimi. Prozkoumejte spolu s nimi biblické texty ekumenického lekcionáře. Aktuálně se zastávkami v Žalmech, u proroka Izajáše, v listu Filipským a Janově evangeliu.

Jan a Jana jsou spolu 20 let. Během soužití zažili chvíle plné harmonie a lásky, ale také doby, kdy jim nebylo do smíchu. Řešili časté stěhování kvůli Janově profesi pastora, vážné nemoci, ztrátu blízkosti i nenaplněné snahy o dítě. Jak to dopadlo a co je spolu udrželo? Jaké mají smluvené signály, které jim naznačují, když je jeden nebo druhý smutný? Řeší, že nemají potomka? I na tyto otázky odpoví další díl pořadu Láska hory přenáší.

Každé veľké mesto má svoju charakteristickú maškrtu. Prešporok či súčasná Bratislava, niekdajšie korunovačné mesto, má tradičné makové a orechové bratislavské rožky. Tento jedinečný artikel má za sebou bohatú 400 ročnú históriu. Zdokumentovať sa ju podarilo autorom pozoruhodnej publikácii o legendárnych bratislavských rožkoch a rovnomennému občianskemu združeniu Bratislavské rožky. Hosťami sobotnej Panorámy boli Eva Bolemant a Peter Janovíček a rozprával sa s nimi Dalibor Uhlár.

Slovo o radosti, Boží záchraně i Janově napomenutí přibližuje relace Séla, za kterou stojí manželé Petr a Markéta Šanderovi z Církve československé husitské v Kuřimi.

V Pardubickém kraji přibývají místa, kde chtějí soukromí investoři stavět větrné elektrárny, a to hlavně na Svitavsku a Orlickoústecku. Investoři lidem slibují levnější elektřinu i příspěvky do obecních rozpočtů.

In Episode 208 of The Popko Project Podcast, we dive into the gritty, nostalgic heart of Wilkes-Barre's punk scene with poet Andrea Janov, who's bringing the vibe of the city's DIY shows, late-night dives, and raw emotion straight to the page. Her book Mix Tapes and Photo Albums isn't just poetry; it's a coming-of-age soundtrack […]

Loin de moi de prôner la violence en intervention, car il y a bien une bonne raison que des thérapies comme le cri primal a disparu du paysage, malgré une forte popularité dans les années 70. En plus de ne pas avoir fait leur preuve scientifiquement, ces mouvements ont connu des dérives importantes. Arthur Janov qui est à l'origine du cri primal est décrit par plusieurs comme un être imbu de lui-même et prônant une vision dogmatique. Il pourrait faire penser à un gourou. La psychologie positive qui domine le paysage de la psychologie actuelle depuis plus de 25 ans repose sur une vision beaucoup plus saine et éthique. Mais pourquoi alors parler de Janov et du cri primal? Il demeure qu'il y a certaines idées qui méritent notre attention encore maintenant. Par exemple, comment aider une personne troublée depuis l'enfance et qui en est même venue à ressentir des symptômes physiques? Malheureusement, des explications intellectuelles demeurent souvent sans effet à un sentiment de vide infini. Pour affronter un mal existentiel, il semble pertinent d'oser remonter dans l'émotion originelle et affronter ce démon au fin fond de soi. Il y a forcément un passage douloureux pour contrer une douleur profonde et des mécanismes de défense bien ancrés. Le cri primal a été d'abord conçu en réaction au manque de résultats concrets dans la psychothérapie et surtout du côté de la psychanalyse. Quelques années plus tard, Claude Allais, un praticien français a revisité la vision de Janov en parlant d'analyse primale, ce qui a donné lieu à un livre en 1980. Bien qu'il se base sur le cri primal, il sait se montrer critique envers Janov, faire preuve de plus d'humilité et amener des nuances importantes sur les pratiques à adopter. Par exemple, selon lui, l'approche doit absolument être adaptée en fonction de la personne et de son besoin. Si je ne me voyais pas parler de cri primal dans mon Balado à cause de certaines de mes valeurs, je trouvais instructif d'explorer la vision de Claude Allais. Cette démarche m'apparaissait cohérente avec la mission de Balado d'explorer des avenues inusitées pouvant être parfois déroutantes. Il demeure que le cri primal fait partie intégrante de l'histoire de l'intervention. Il est intéressant de noter que John Lennon a effectué lui-même cette thérapie, ce qui fut à l'origine de son premier album solo et a des chansons comme Mother et God. Le nom du groupe des années 80 Tears for Fears tire son inspiration d'un livre de Janov. La totalité des chansons de leur premier album (The Hurting) abordent la vision de Janov. Ce volet fera l'objet de mes réflexions personnelles. Pour cet épisode, je ne suis pas parvenu à une position claire sur les grandes questions évoquées. Je vous invite plutôt à écouter cet épisode comme un voyage en terrain inconnu.

We finish our discussion of Foundation and Earth with Part VII: Earth. That includes chapters 19 — "Radioactive?" 20 — "The Nearby World," and 21 — "The Search Ends." I haven't bothered with spoiler alerts for a while. This time, though, if you haven't finished the novel and don't want to be spoilered, seriously, don't look even at the link below. And speaking of things we don't quite understand, this is a musical intro to a non-musical episode. Because, c'mon, if we're wrapping up Foundation and Earth, how can we fail to reference Man on the Moon by REM? Here are some Foundation-specific alternative lyrics. Golan started searching for the psychohistoric. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Fallom playing music making Alpha euphoric. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Bliss is along and that means Gaia is here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Janov got to Earth because he centered the sphere. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Now, Daneel, did you hear about this one? Tell me, are you upgrading soon? Danny, are you goofing on Seldon? Hey, baby, can you carry the boon? If you believed they put a man in the moon, man in the moon, If you believe there's nothing up his sleeve, Then nothing is cool! If you like that, we have a bonus verse on our website. And a quick show note; in our next episode we'll be talking about two short stories, "Cal" and "The Fun They Had." Plus a special guest! But right now, the Man in the Moon! Let's Go!

Přijali jste Ducha svatého? Touto otázkou nás na Letnice, narozeniny Církve, provedl náš pastor, David Živor.  Lidé raději zůstávají sympatizanty, než aby se stali Božími dětmi. Věří v Otce; Syna už moc nechápou; a Ducha raději vytěsňují úplně. Zůstávají tak v Janově křtu. Zůstávají ve Staré smlouvě a pod Zákonem. Ježíš ale přišel s lidmi uzavřít Novou smlouvu, abychom mohli žít pod milostí, naplněni a vedeni Duchem. Opravdu jste přijali Ducha svatého? Přijali jste jej jako tchyni? Možná spí pod vaší střechou, ale to ještě neznamená, že jste ji přijali… Necháváme Ducha, ať vede naše kroky? Necháváme ho vést naše modlitby? Necháváme ho mluvit skrze Písmo? Prosíme za jeho dary? #evangelium #Jezis #bohosluzba #pochodenpraha #Letnice #DuchSvaty #vira #ucednik #Pavel #Efez #Skutky  — Více informací o nás a další zdroje pro následování Ježíše najdete na našem webu: https://pochoden-praha.cz   S jakýmkoliv dotazem nás neváhejte kontaktovat: info@pochoden-praha.cz   https://linktr.ee/PochodenPraha    https://facebook.com/Pochod.Praha  https://instagram.com/PochodenPraha   https://twitter.com/PochodenPraha 

V knize Zjevení i v Janově evangeliu – tam všude vyhledala Dana Kenningová pasáže, které před oči srdce postaví Ježíše jako pramen živé vody, která dokáže nasytit nejvnitřnější touhy a dát skutečný život.

Šestá postní Séla manželů Šanderových nabízí zastavení v Davidově žalmu, Izaiášově proroctví a Janově evangeliu.

In S5E02 we talk about chapters 5 through 8 of Foundation's Edge. We're about 40% of the way into the book now and we're still introducing characters! This section introduces us to the Second Foundation including Stor Gendibal, Delora Delarmi, and First Speaker Quindor Shandass, and shows us that the Speakers' Table is a raucous affair. We also meet Sura Novi, a Trantorian farm woman who becomes important to Gendibal. We're also treated to an Asenion chain of reasoning describing how Janov figured out the characteristics of Earth. And we answer some hard-hitting questions like "Are any of the characters actually likable?" You wouldn't want to miss that, would you? Join us while we discuss "Speaker," "Earth," "Farmer," and "Farmwoman!"  When you must — listen!  Let's go!

Vánočky, vanilkové rohlíčky, linecké cukroví, nebo vosí hnízda. Podle cukrářů bychom se měli do pečení vánočního cukroví pustit nejpozději tři týdny před Štědrým dnem, abychom mu dopřáli čas na uležení. Kde to ale voní už v těchto dnech, tak to je v Koláčkově pekárně v Janově nad Nisou, kam se s ČRo Liberec vypravíme hodinu před polednem. Podíváme se pod šikovné ruce cukrářů, a necháme se inspirovat zajímavými recepty.Všechny díly podcastu Host Dopoledne pod Ještědem můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

Welcome to this episode of "Behind the Melody," where we delve into the captivating story behind the iconic song "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" by Tears for Fears, released in 1985.Join us as we uncover the serendipitous origins and extraordinary journey of this timeless track. The tale begins in the picturesque city of Bath, located in the enchanting South West of England. Here, two young teenagers, Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, crossed paths and embarked on a remarkable musical adventure.At the time, Roland Orzabal found himself amidst a profound spiritual quest. It was during this introspective period that fate intervened, leading him to encounter "The Primal Scream," a book penned by renowned American psychotherapist Arthur Janov. Janov's work revolved around a therapeutic approach that aimed to unleash the deep-seated childhood traumas through cries, screams, and primal expressions.Thus, the genesis of "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" was born from this shared pursuit of personal healing and growth. This transformative track would go on to capture the hearts of millions worldwide, resonating with its introspective lyrics and captivating melodies.

Tentokrát se TL;DR na pozvání literárního festivalu Inverze vypravilo do Ostravy. Zde poněkud příznačně došlo na dva texty, které nemají mnoho společného vyjma jedné věci – odehrávají se na periferii. A to nejen periferii urbánní, ale i lidské či společenské. Bára Bažantová zaujala už svou předchozí knihou-dokumentem Hoří chemička, něco si přej, v níž deníkovou formou reflektovala prostředí vyloučené lokality sídliště Janov v Litvínově. V novince Prokletý, kdo přichází se přesouváme z Litvínova do Barcelony mezi squattery a zároveň z literatury faktu do fikce. To druhé je ovšem otázka, protože autorka je opět mimořádně autentická, citlivá, syrová a upřímná, jako by to celé bylo hlavně hodně osobní. Text připomínající postundergroundovou poetiku sice pracuje s atmosférou squatů, jejich nihilismem a temnotou, autorka ale především odkrývá civilizační bolesti. Ze všeho jako by zároveň prosvítala již přicházející budoucnost, klimatický rozvrat, rozevírající se ekonomické nůžky, lidé z okrajů společnosti migrující Evropou za teplem či relativním chládkem, se soundsystémy za výdělky, prchající před svými traumaty, bloudící mezi drogami a svými sny. Hradeckého básnická novinka Na cvičišti. Bojiště se dá asi zestručnit – ničím moc nepřekvapila. Šokujícího dojmu jsme byli ušetřeni a jako čtenáři dostali sarkasmy s nulovou dávkou optimismu, na které jsme zvyklí. I tentokrát došlo na nějaké drby – snad početně skromnější, neboť v létě literární provoz trochu utichá, ale o to bizarnější. ► Playlist:

Petr Globočník se narodil na sídlišti Janov v Litvínově. K místu má vztah. Není mu lhostejné, jak se kdysi výstavní sídliště proměnilo v největší české ghetto. Zakoupil proto secesní vilu Libuši a začal do ní zvát místní, kteří do té doby neměli zázemí pro své koníčky a bezcílně se toulali po ulici. Zpočátku a vlastně ani teď to nemá Petr Globočník jednoduché. Zpočátku čelil krádežím, teď bojuje s cenami energie a se stavem historické budovy. Kromě toho, že platí hypotéku na celý dům, splácí vysoké nedoplatky za energie, plánuje si půjčit v bance na instalaci fotovoltaických panelů. A musí ještě opravit střechu, aby bylo solární panely kam umístit. Vznikla proto veřejná sbírka a možná pomůže i nadcházející Ghetto fest. Petr Globočník je ukázka čirého šílenství, ovšem v tom nejlepším slova smyslu.

Jak uchránit pozornost jako klíčový statek? Jak chápat dnešní svět z pohledu přehlcení z možností volby? A jak svět sociálních sítí a takzvaných digitálních mělčin ovlivňuje politiku a společnost jako celek? Hostem dalšího dílu Deep Talks byl přední český filozof Václav Bělohradský. Vystudoval na Filozofické fakultě Univerzity Karlovy, roce 1970 po sovětské okupaci odešel do emigrace a působil jako pedagog na Filozofickém institutu v Janově. Profesor Bělohradský patří k žákům Jana Patočky a dlouhá léta spolupracoval s českými exilovými nakladatelstvími a domácím disentem. Je autorem mnoha knih, z těch posledních například Čas pléthokracie.

U jízdní policie už pracuje 31 let a nejrůznějších akcí a zásahů zažil opravdu hodně. „Třeba velmi rizikové byly demonstrace v Janově a v Novém Bydžově.

Myslet si, že se všechno na celém světě najednou mávnutím proutku vyřeší, je naivita. Ale zase nemít žádnou naději, to by bylo peklo. A tak je tu novoroční rozhovor s Václavem Cílkem o tom, že to snad zas tak strašné nebude, a že to opravdu bude hlavně záležet na nás, na každém. To je vlastně dobrá i špatná zpráva…Rozhovor byl natočený během prvního setkání s fanoušky a podporovateli talkshow Hausbot Petra Horkého na Janově u Hřenska, v hotelu Devítka. hotel-devitka.czpartnery kanálu jsou:@GoldenGate @Bushmanhttps://herohero.co/petrhorkySupport the show

Když hořelo Hřensko, když hořel v létě ten obrovský požár v Českém Švýcarsku, tak o tom mluvila celá zem a média se mohla zbláznit. Ale právě teď, pár měsíců po požáru, se v národním parku dějí velké věci, ale najednou chcípl pes a nikdo o tom nemluví. Jak si poradí příroda, co se děje na spáleništi? Byli jsme se tam projít pár dní po otevření, na vlastní oči se podívat a situaci nám popsal přímo pracovník národního parku, strážce přírody Václav Sojka. Můžu dopředu říct, že se dějí velké věci! Natáčení proběhlo na setkání přátel, fanoušků a podporovatelů mne a mého Hausbotu, na hotelu Devítka na Janově. Díky za to, že jste vyprodali celý hotel, byla to pro mne nádherná akce! hotel-devitka.czPartnery kanálu jsou@goldengate Golden Gate@bushman BushmanDíky všem odběratelům na herohero.co/petrhorky a patreonům!Support the show

Kniha Hoří chemička, něco si přej, vychází z deníku, který si psala umělkyně a sociální pracovnice Bára Bažantová během měsíčního pobytu v komunitním centru Libuše na litvínovském sídlišti Janov. „Nemít očekávání byla naše strategie. Držely jsme se toho, že to prostředí neznáme, nevěděly jsme předem, co je tam třeba. Nechtěly jsme vytvářet domněnky a kategorie bez prožité zkušenosti,“ popisuje počátek projektu antropoložka Lenka Podroužek Polčová.Všechny díly podcastu On Air můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

V nakladatelství Tranzit vyšla nedávno publikace Hoří chemička, něco si přej. Její autorka, umělkyně a aktivistka Bára Bažantová strávila část minulého roku na trochu „netradiční rezidenci“ ve vile Libuše, která se nachází přímo uprostřed sídliště v Janově u Litvínova. Toto sídliště se zapsalo do nejnovějších dějin jako místo, kde v roce 2008 proběhl pokus o pogrom na místní romské obyvatele ze strany neonacistů. Jak vypadá situace v Janově dnes, kdo zde bydlí a jak vypadá běžný život těchto lidí? O tom všem jsme si povídali v nejnovějším dílu podcastu Kolaps právě s Bárou Bažantovou. ► Líbil se vám tento díl Kolapsu?

Sousedský dům Libuše pomáhá už déle než dva roky na sídlišti Janov v Litvínově. Spolek My Litvínov nabízí v Libuši prostory, kde se můžou děti a dospívající z chudých rodin zabavit. V domě už vznikla posilovna nebo umělecký ateliér, teď si mladí hudebníci sami ve sklepě staví nahrávací studio.

Čtvrtý den zasahují hasiči u požáru v Národním parku České Švýcarsko. Požár se přes noc nerozšířil, hasiči dál zasahují na ploše o velikosti 1000 hektarů. Podařilo se zajistit požární obranu evakuovaných obcí Mezná, Mezní Louka a Vysoká Lípa u Jetřichovic a požár neohrožuje ani zatím nevystěhovanou obec Janov. „Narozdíl od včerejší a předvčerejší noci se nám podařilo udržet linii požáru", řekl ve vysílání Rádia Z generální ředitel Hasičského záchranného sboru, Generálmajor Vladimír Vlček.

S požárem lesů v Českém Švýcarsku bojují hasiči už třetí den. V úterý odpoledne jich v oblasti kolem Hřenska byly nasazeny čtyři stovky. Pomoc s hašením Česku přislíbilo Slovensko, Polsko a Itálie. Jak to vypadá v obci Mezná, kde hasiči boj s ohněm vzdali? Jaká je situace v bezprostředně ohroženém Janově?

Svatba v Káni galilejské má v Janově evangeliu privilegované místo, je to popis prvního Ježíšova zázraku. Důležité je to místo, svatební veselí. Ježíš tak říká, že nás zve k radosti, hojnosti, společenství. Svatba v Káni se totiž odehrává "třetího dne" - a to je zřejmý odkaz na Ježíšovo zmrtvýchvstání, den velké radosti. Odkazuje tedy do budoucna, na věci, které přijdou, až se setkáme s Ježíšem tváří v tvář a zároveň to je radost pro dnešní den, protože víme, co přijde. Autor, hovoří: Petr Húšť

In this episode we discuss Primal Therapy as pioneered by the American Psychologist Arthur Janov. We look at childhood conditioning, family therapy, birth trauma, family and ancestry history, past lives and evolutionary conditioning. We also contrast Primal Therapy with Family Therapy and addiction recovery processes. Primal Therapy is a method of coming into a deeper understanding and experiencing of life.    Related episode on Social Sphere Koans:  https://www.podbean.com/eu/pb-p73dn-d8e054     Find more episodes of the Andrew Lake Podcast here: Podbean: https://andrewlakepodcast.podbean.com/ iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/andrew-lake-podcast/id1439388762?mt=2 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/36T6M5UiOt9E35U6faNQUi Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/JonoLakeside

"The Primal Scream" by Dr. Arthur Janov was an influential and controversial book. Twenty years ago I recorded my only interview with Dr. Janov to discuss his book "The Biology of Love." We were joined on the program that day by his wife France Janov. During the interview we had a discussion about his "primal scream therapy," how the idea for it came about, and how it is supposed to work. Dr. Janov died in 2017. The Book Nook on WYSO is presented by the Greene County Public Library with additional support from Washington-Centerville Public Library , Clark County Public Library , Dayton Metro Library , and Wright Memorial Public Library .

Chcete-li mi více rozumět, otevřete si Janovo evangelium 11. kapitolu a přečtěte si celý oddíl od 1. až po 44. verš. Nemoc a smrt přišly do malé vesnice. Každý se s těmi chvílemi v té komunitě vyrovnává jinak. Když čteme text, jsou jmenovitě před námi učedníci (1) a pak Marta s Marií (2). S nimi v tuto chvíli náš Pán hovoří. Jistě jsou totiž kolem i další, kteří by stáli za pozornost, ale v Janově vyprávění nejsou tak ostře popsáni. Židé, zástup. Dav. Jim na očích se celý příběh odehrává. Věnovat se budu tomu, na kterého se evangelista zaměří především. Soustředím se na Pána Ježíše (3) a jeho slova, adresovaná Martě. Protože nakonec přijde vzkříšení...

Colin Cordwell, proprietor of the The Red Lion English pub, brings his uncanny insights and encyclopedic knowledge to Booth One this week. Colin has seen it all in his 40 years watching "a conveyor belt of humanity go past me" behind one of Chicago's great bars. He regales Gary with tales of his father John, an architect who became a POW in WWII. John designed a theatre in his prison camp and became a forger who was part of The Great Escape. Colin describes some of the many memorable characters who have walked into the Red Lion, including Christopher Hitchens, with whom he had an extended conversation about WWI poetry. Calling the exchange "a labyrinth of obscurata," it's an astonishing glimpse into just one small corner of Colin's ability to speak eloquently about so many subjects, including history, poetry, philosophy and war. A fine actor earlier in his career, Colin has a soft spot for those who walk the boards. Colin and his father have generously given free rehearsal space to nascent theater companies over the years. When Barbara Gaines brought them her vision for a major Shakespeare company in Chicago, they believed in her and provided a venue for her first project back in the early 80's. That memorable production of Henry V started Shakespeare Repertory, now known world-wide as Chicago Shakespeare Theater. Colin talks movingly about how he could see that Barbara's "soul was ignited" by Shakespeare's work and how proud he is that his dad and he helped her get CST off the ground. Gary gives a glowing recommendation to go see the Goodman Theatre's production of A View From the Bridge, the stunning Ivo van Hove conception that played on Broadway a couple of seasons ago. Done in the style of a Greek tragedy, this interpretation gives deeper meaning and understanding to one of Arthur Miller's most famous plays. An absolute must see - running only until October 22! Looking for a "higher" education opportunity? Look no further than Northern Michigan University in Marquette, MI. This small Midwest college is offering the first degree of its kind at a four-year undergraduate college in "medicinal plant chemistry", effectively a major in marijuana, that will prepare students for careers in the burgeoning marijuana industry. Now's your chance to make that career change you've dreamed about! Read more here. Like many properties and buildings that date to the 19th century, The Red Lion has its stories of haunting, ghosts and inexplicable events. Colin chillingly recounts a few encounters over the years with specters, voices and objects moving by themselves. Gary talks about what a magical place the Red Lion is and how he learns something every visit. It's a place that awakens the imagination.

You'll have to register as a "verified fan" with Ticketmaster and give up your personal information for their marketing use - forever! While consumers surely benefit from these anti-bot techniques, producers benefit even more by creating Amazon-like databases. The Chicago Tribune lays the story out pretty clearly. Kiss of Death: Arthur Janov, Psychiatrist who caught the world's attention with "Primal Scream" "The Primal Scream" in 1970 became a cultural phenomenon, embraced by celebrities as a treatment that could cure a multitude of ills and neuroses. Janov's Primal Center in Los Angeles still practices the technique, though it has been debunked and discredited as a treatment option for mental health. It managed to outlive the 70's by a considerable margin. Arthur Janov was 93. Read Margalit Fox's obit.

Ce monde est fou. Oui, moi j'en ai la preuve, les gusses. En effet, j'ai le premier album de Tears For Fears. Il se nomme the hurting. Et si l'on connait surtout d'autres titres du duo anglais, notamment Shout, cet album reste relativement méconnu. Vous me direz, oui, mais bon. Arrêtez-vous là, pauvres fous !the hurting, c'est d'abord un album concept, mais surtout la raison d'être de Tears For Fears ! Ce groupe est né primitivement quelques années avant ce disque, mais a pris son nom des travaux du psychiatre américain borderline Janov. Ce disque est une adaptation de ses œuvres, en quelque sorte en chansons torturées, où le groupe reprend les grands thèmes de leur maître à penser. Forcément, ça hurt, ça heurte (même l'exigence humoristique est incomprise ici), puisque ces chansons qui nous paraissent si poétiques sont en réalité l'amer sentiment d'Orzabal et Curt (le duo, bordel, suivez un peu) sur l'enfance et l'adolescence (surtout celles qu'ils ont vécues). Et cette musique, si new wave, cache en réalité des compositions de génie, très noires, s'est retrouvée transcendée par ces sonorités synthé presque par hasard.Si maintenant vous avez compris qu'il va falloir creuser sous le vernis, et que vous êtes prêts à savoir comment, il ne vous reste plus qu'à cliquer sur la réécoute, vous allez vous sentir mieux.

An Interview with Leslie Greenberg, Ph.D. on Emotion-Focused Therapy. Mental Help Net (www.mentalhelp.net) presents the Wise Counsel Podcast (wisecounsel.mentalhelp.net), hosted by David Van Nuys, Ph.D. Dr. Van Nuys interviews Leslie Greenberg, Ph.D. with regard to Dr. Greenberg's Emotion-Focused Psychotherapy. Dr. Greenberg is not so interested in promoting yet another name brand psychotherapy but has felt complelled to package his work in this fashion so as to get it out there, in the face of the dominant cognitive-behavioral mode of therapy which deemphasizes the importance of what he wants to talk about. His therapy is focused squarely on helping patients to experience and comprehend their emotional process through the communication of an intellectual framework for understanding emotion, and the direct experience of emotion in the therapy. It is the conceptual framework and the large base of research it sits upon that differentiates this therapy from older emotion-focused therapies such as gestalt therapy, Rogerian client centered therapy, and (shudder) Janov's primal scream. The approach recognizes emotions as action-tendencies motivating behavior, and as people's most fundamental synthesis of their understanding of their situation. It seeks to put people back in touch with avoided fundamental emotions as without awareness of avoided emotions, people are rudderless and disoriented. Multiple research studies of this Emotion-Focused therapy have been conducted, resulting in firm support for the efficacy of the approach.

Introduction: Analyzing Psychoanalysis I'm essentially preaching a whole sermon on one verse today, so that must be a good verse, and it is. It's a verse, that's the foundation I think of a movement called Biblical Counseling that is growing in strength, to the glory of God in our country and around the world. The November 29th, 1993 issue of Time magazine had as a cover article, a picture of Sigmund Freud with his head kind of unraveling in some kind of a three-dimensional puzzle and getting put back together. One of those artistic renditions, like that. And it asked the question, "Is Freud dead?" When I saw it, I thought it's a good thing that Time asks easy questions to answer. The answer is, yes, Freud is dead. But obviously they're meaning more than just, is his body in the grave. They're really asking a deeper question, "Is the influence of Sigmund Freud and his approach to psycho-analysis, is that dead?" And the answer to that is No. Though Freud has come under some severe questioning even by people who maybe originally believed in his theories. Yet his influence is increasing. You know the picture of mustache, goatee, a man sitting there dignified with a notepad and a pen, and somebody laying on a couch, and spilling out their lives and telling him their dreams and all this sort of stuff, and he analyzing all of that. That's a lasting image and it's had a tremendous effect on our society, and our culture and a tremendous effect on the church of Jesus Christ. At present, there are over 200 identifiable talking cures in America today, with between 10 and 15 million Americans doing the talking. We live surrounded constantly by people who are feeling in their lives, in their marriages, in their homes, the devastating consequences of sin. I. A World Crying for Good Counsel Sins ravages are visible everywhere, in addictions, in dissolving and hurting families, in escalating mental anguish, in increasing temptations, we're surrounded every day by people who are crying out for help. And the world's response is, "Get some counseling." If you can just get some counseling. And more and more counseling is coupled with medications. Prescriptions for mood and behavior altering drugs are proliferating. More and more that seems to be the solution. Now, all of this, all of this is intensely important for us as Christians, who should be, and who are, genuinely concerned about the welfare of our co-workers, and neighbors, and family and friends, that they would know and love Jesus Christ. Franklin Graham, the evangelist said, the key, one of the keys to evangelism is taking your finger as it were, and rubbing it around the inside of the rim of the cup of their lives, and trying to find the places where sin has left its cracks and that's the place where the gospel can begin to work in people's lives. But psychotherapy stands as a direct challenge to the spiritual healing ministry of Jesus Christ and the Gospel. Remember that Jesus said in Luke 5:31-32, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." That's the essence of the healing that Jesus has come to bring. That's the essence of what the Gospel does, it bring sinners to repentance, to a healed relationship with God and therefore with one another. A History Lesson on Psychology Now, psychology over the last 100 years has gone through some interesting twists and turns. It started with Sigmund Freud in his office in Vienna, and he wrote a book on the interpretation of dreams and that started the modern psychotherapy revolution. His basic ideas were that the key to psychosis, mental illness, is what happened to you in the past and many of the most significant issues that happened to you in the past, lie repressed in your memory. Sometimes it comes out in dreams or under hypnotism or other things, but the key is what happened to you in your past. Perhaps your mother was too protective or your father was too harsh, or there was a school bully that beat up on you and abused you in some way. And the purpose of counseling then, is to dredge up these past memories and to deal with them. In recent years, we've heard more and more about these repressed lives and repressed memories, and they're these thoughts that come out that get incredibly bizarre and challenge the way people even see reality. Tales of satanic ritual abuse, and there's no historical evidence that any of it happened but these repressed memories and it's all part of the Freudian approach to healing, bringing out those secret memories. And if you could just understand them then you could be healed. Now, many of Freud's theories actually showed more about him than they do about the true nature of man. Some of his own psychosis and perversions come out as you study his approach. However, I'll say this, for all the attacks on Freud, his basic ideas still remain and are pervasive in our culture. Man is not responsible. Guilt is imaginary. The key to therapy is digging up the past. These things are still with us. Now, after Freud, came other schools of counseling, like BF Skinner for example. The behaviorist model, the idea there is that man is totally conditioned by external training, by circumstances, by positive and negative reinforcement. To understand behavior, you have to understand the environment that shaped it. To change behavior, you have to change the environment, re-train the mind. So therefore, man is nothing more than a machine to be programmed. And if we're going to see a difference in behavior we've got to change the programming. That's BF Skinner. Then there is Carl Rogers who came up with this reflection approach to counseling. "Human beings," said Rogers, "are basically good and like all living creatures, they will try always to make the best of their existences. Evolution has given us everything we need for being all that we can be." A counselor's job according to Rogers then is to help the person find their own solutions to the problems that they face. The idea is that they know themselves and their situations far better than the counselor ever could or would, therefore, the counselor's job is simply to reflect back to the counsel-ee, their own feelings and their own thoughts. The goal is to help the person reach their own highest potential. And so the counseling session involves the counselor simply repeating back to the person what they're saying. Like a mirror. So it would go something like this. "So you're saying that you'd really like to quit your job, but you're afraid of the consequences." Or, "you feel that your husband doesn't appreciate you the way that he should," or “it seems to me you feel like you wish your son would be a little more responsible," or "you feel like you're on a roller coaster, going up and down, and there's no way to get off." Listen, if you ever come to me and I start doing that sort of stuff, just slap me. Okay. I'm going to cut right to the heart of the matter, alright. That's called reflection. Okay. The key question in this kind of counseling is, "How does that make you feel?" So we're trained to ask that question over and over. How does that make you feel? And so we write down how it makes the person feel and at some point, after 14 years of counseling they'll stumble upon the solution that was embedded in their own heart and lives, all along. Twenty-first century counseling: widespread chaos I was reading one particular author, Dr. Arthur Janov who was a secular counselor, and he's analyzing his field of expertise, he's not a Christian, but he's analyzing the field so that he can lay it waste and bring his own counseling approach as the primal one, the central one. But his analysis, I think, is mostly accurate about the field of psychotherapy in America today. He said this. "In no other area of medicine is there such disagreement about the nature of a disease, what its symptoms are, how it manifests itself, not to mention its causes. In short, the field of psychotherapy today is nothing less than chaotic." He went on to talk about the whole different ranges of approaches that psychotherapists are using to try to heal people. He talked about obviously prescribing drugs, using hypnotism, analyzing guilt into oblivion, acting out kind of therapies like gestalt, where you get to act out what you're really thinking and feeling. Or using mild shock treatment, re-training people to think differently about their actions and to redefine them. Biofeedback therapy, day dreaming and image therapies. And what Janov says, as he looks at all of these things is that none of them, not one treats the genuine causes of neuroses, they only ever treat the symptoms. Well, the sad thing is that the Christian church is kind of imitating these types of approaches in what it's called, what is called Christian counseling. And I'm going to make a distinction, this morning between Christian counseling and Biblical Counseling. Not all Christian counseling is biblical. You can get a lot of Christian counseling that's not biblical at all. Now, my training at Gordon-Conwell an Evangelical seminary in Massachusetts was essentially Carl Rogers mirroring techniques with a thin veneer of Christianity painted over the top. And I mean a really thin veneer. I took that book, it was sitting on my shelf. It's been sitting there for the last eight years. I hadn't looked at it once, and good thing too. It wouldn't have help me at all. But I took it down and I skimmed it very, very carefully, and I did not find anywhere, a single Scripture quote in over 250 pages. Practical Psychology for Pastors is the name of the volume. It was written for the Christian pastor, but there's no scripture, there was a whole chapter on dealing with anger and anxiety. I can think of a couple Bible verses that might help. Not one of them were quoted. This is how I was trained to do counseling, in my seminary. It was a good seminary. Biblical in every other way, but in this one way it wasn't. And we were told that in our counseling sessions, we should refrain from doing any of the following with the people who come. We should refrain from ordering, directing or commanding, warning or threatening, giving advice, making suggestions, providing solutions, persuading with logic, arguing or lecturing, moralizing, preaching, telling them their duty, judging, criticizing, disagreeing, blaming, agreeing, approving, praising, shaming, ridiculing, name-calling, interpreting or analyzing, reassuring or sympathizing, consoling, questioning, probing, withdrawing, distracting or changing the subject. Now, you may be wondering with me, what's left for me to do? I think I ought to just buy a big mirror, and set it up in front of the person and they can talk to themselves because that's all I'm doing. "So you feel that such and such etcetera." Obviously some of those things I would never want to do, but others, it seems that's exactly why they've come to me that they would have some insight and know what to do. In this approach, when the time came to give solutions, the basic role was to help them solve their own problems. Christian counseling all over the country, is often very little more than worldly counseling. One of the insights I gained from going to a counseling and Biblical Counseling seminar in the last year, is that the basic approach of secular counseling, the basic premise is, that the heart of man is essentially good and the problems are on the outside, therefore all the problems come from outside, and the solutions all come from inside. Brothers and sisters, you know, the Bible teaches the exact opposite, the problems come from inside, and the solutions come from the outside, a Savior named Jesus Christ. The Word of God that comes from the outside in and gives us good counsel. That is a significant insight I believe. Now, one of the problems with counseling with the Christian counseling, is that pastors are told and Christians are told even more, that they are not qualified to solve these kinds of problems, and they should refer people as quickly as possible to trained professionals. Now, in 1970, a man named J. Adams, brought a radical revolution to this whole approach with a book entitled Competent to Counsel. He got his title from the verse that I'm preaching on this morning, Competent to Counsel, brought about a revolution and something he called Nouthetic Counseling. Now, I'm going to define Nouthetic Counseling for you in the sermon this morning. But basically, it has to do with Biblical Counseling. The basic premise is that the Bible is sufficient to solve people's problems, it is sufficient for the cure of souls. His ground-breaking work has led many to call Jay Adams the father of Biblical Counseling. Five years after the first publishing of Competent to Counsel, he started a ministry that we know as NANC. 1975 National Association of Nouthetic Counselors. And the center piece of NANC is that the Bible is sufficient for the counseling needs of God's people, and that God's people completing goodness and knowledge are themselves Competent to Counsel. II. A Church Competent to Give Good Counsel The Bible is sufficient, the people of God, fully trained are competent to administer those treatments. And the key verse on Christian counseling is Romans 15:14. Look at it with me, if you would. And there it says, "I myself am satisfied about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and competent to counsel, one another." So we live in a world surrounded by people who need good counsel. The second point I want to make to you this morning is that the church is competent to give that good counsel. The two fundamental doubts of secular psychology is number one, the insufficiency of scripture for the cure of souls and number two, the incompetence of common Christians for the cure of souls. Those are the two basic assumptions. Sadly, the Church acts like it agrees with these basic premises. More and more psychology is weaving its way into ministry. More and more pastors get up and preach, not so much the text, but they preach psychology to the people. So also in pastoral counseling, and in actual Christian counseling, there's very little Biblical wisdom or insight given to people who need it so much. And so the church acts like most problems of the soul can only be solved by trained psychiatrists or at least by professional counselors. So therefore, assuming that most serious problems will have to be solved by medications anyway, and buying into the presuppositions that the Bible is insufficient to solve human problems, and afraid of getting sued, and in awe of secular degrees, PhDs and all that in highfalutin terms like obsessive-compulsive disorder, and transference and blocking and all these kinds of things, and fear of the commitment, that it will take to really get down and dirty in somebody's life and try to help them grow through very troubling sin problems. For all these reasons, and some others, the church abandons its ministry of curing souls and leaves it to the trained professionals who are not for the most part, using the Bible to do it. But let's understand a fundamental thing. Psychology is literally the study of the human soul, that's what the word means, it's the science of the soul. And my friends, if this Bible is not sufficient for that, then what was it given to us for. The Bible is sufficient to study and analyze and cure the human soul from its sin problems. Amen. And so I believe the fundamental conviction as Christians, we have to have is the answers are found in this book. Let's try to find what they are. Paul’s Context: The Roman Church Now Paul's context we already know, he's writing to the Roman church. He's well-acquainted with their faith. He'd never visited them before. He doesn't know them personally. But he says in Romans 1:8, "First I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world." They were a very famous local church because they were there in the heart of the capital of the Roman empire. Now, Paul has completed over 14 chapters of doctrine and exhortation. He's in his 15th chapter now. And Paul's assessment of them in verse 14, is he says, "I myself am satisfied about you, my brothers that you yourselves are full of goodness, and filled with all knowledge, competent to counsel one another." He's persuaded, he's satisfied about them, he's investigated their conversion and their spiritual growth since they were converted. He is convinced about the statement he's about to make, Therefore, I say to you that it's not a given that every Christian is competent to counsel, not in the way the Paul means in this verse. He had to be persuaded or convinced that they were competent to counsel. But I also believe that every Christian could be competent to counsel other Christians on these matters. Two Criteria for Competency in Counseling: Goodness and Knowledge Now, Paul gives two criteria for competency in counseling. Notice neither one of them talks about a degree from an accredited higher institution. He says, "I'm convinced that you yourselves my brothers are full of goodness, and filled with all kinds of knowledge." Full of goodness, filled with knowledge. That's the criteria that he gives. 1) Full of Goodness Now first, full of goodness. Now, I said already, the essential problem of Freud and Skinner and especially Carl Rogers is that they're coming at it from a perspective of the basic goodness of the human heart, basic goodness of the human heart. Well we've already had our basic anthropology, back in Romans chapter 3. Romans 3 told us, "There is no one righteous, not even one. There is no one who understands, no one who seeks God, all have turned away, they have together become worthless. There is no one who does good, not even one." In this Jesus already established, very plainly, when the rich young ruler came to him, and said, "Good teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?" Jesus picks up on this word good. He said, "Why do you ask me about what is good? No one is good but God alone." That's Jesus assessment of the human race So, how did the Roman Christians get to be full of goodness? Now that's a very fascinating question, isn't it? If Romans 3 is true, that, there's no one naturally righteous, no one who seeks God, all have together turned aside and there's no one who does good, not even one. Then how is it that now he's making the statement that they're full of goodness? Well, I say to you this, the Gospel of Jesus Christ has the power to make wicked sinners good. Isn't that awesome? The Gospel has the power to make evil people good. The blood of Jesus Christ has that kind of power. And so, in Ephesians 5:8-9, it says, "For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of the light. For the food of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth and find out what pleases the Lord." We were, apart from Christ, darkness, but having come to the gospel, believing that Jesus's death on the cross, his blood was shed for us, having faith in Christ, we were cleansed of all of our sins, the righteousness of Jesus Christ was imputed to us and we were made good in the sight of God. But Paul goes beyond that. Not just good positionally, he says, "You are filled with goodness, full of goodness." Now, that's a different matter. It's built on the foundation of the imputed or given goodness that we receive by faith in Christ. But then there's a building on that goodness, it's what we call sanctification. And so by the power of the Holy Spirit, we become more and more filled with goodness, as it says in Galatians 5:22, "The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control." Goodness then is something that the Holy Spirit works in us by His power as we grow gradually and become more and more like Jesus. And so we can actually be full of goodness. Now, my question in the matter of counseling is, "Why is it important, essential even, to be full of goodness?" Well, true counseling must involve a genuine love for the person you're ministering to. You have to genuinely love them. You're trying to help them, it's a genuine commitment to their well-being. Without genuine goodness ulterior motives could pollute the counseling session. For example, some counselors, secular counselors charge as much as $135 an hour, for the counseling session. Is there not a temptation for that kind of money to string the person on for 15 years? We're making real progress. Keep on coming we'll see again, Tuesday, 3 o'clock in the afternoon, $135 a week. What a temptation that is, but if you're full of goodness, you're not into that. You want to see them genuinely move past these sins, put them to death, by the power of the Spirit, see triumph and victory in their lives. Full of goodness is essential to good Biblical Counseling. 2) Filled With Knowledge Secondly, he says filled with all knowledge. Literally, it says, Having been fulfilled with all knowledge. It's a strong statement of their full training having been completed. They are fully trained as Christians. Now, we're not talking about omniscience. You don't have to know every single Biblical doctrine, it's not that, but rather you are fully trained. Jesus talked about that, "No student is greater than his master, but when he is fully trained it is enough for the student to be like the master." So there is a point of being fully trained, and he says "You Roman Christians you're fully trained." Now, this implies a full training in Christian doctrine, a knowledge of the deep things of God. Well, how does that happen? Well, no one is born again into the Christian faith having full knowledge. Basically you subject your mind constantly to the renewing influences of the Word of God. You sit under a good preaching or teaching ministry. You imbibe as much of the scriptures as you can. You saturate your mind in the Word of God, and over time you can reach a level where the Apostle Paul might say about you, "You are filled with all kinds of knowledge." Now, why is it essential to be filled with knowledge in order to be competent to council? Well, let me tell you something. If you're just going to do Rogers reflection, you don't need to be filled with anything. You actually kind of need empty yourself and forget about yourself and just reflect back constantly. And that's the allure of it, it seems so Christian, it seems so other-centered. You don't have an opinion in the world, you don't have a thought about anything, you're just reflecting back what they're saying. But I say to you, the people who are desperate for wisdom and counsel, they need to know what the Word of God says about their situation, and they don't. Maybe a Christian couple, a husband and wife want to know how to have a godly marriage after perhaps each of their families were divorced and they grew up in homes that were not filled with Christian influence. And they don't know how to do it and they're running into some problems now with conflicts and they don't know how to resolve conflicts. Or someone else is struggling with habitual lust through internet pornography. Or somebody else is battling depression in their daily walk, perhaps they've even toyed with thoughts of suicide, though they know it's a sin, but they're just discouraged, they're depressed. Somebody else wants to know how to discipline their children so that they can grow in grace and they can be fruitful, productive Christians, when they're done being trained. Maybe somebody else is battling laziness and procrastination. Or maybe a wife is married to a non-Christian husband and he neglects her, mocks her faith. Or another person has an alcoholic family member and they want to intervene in some way and help them break their sin pattern. This and 100 other cases come into the life of the church and those folks, they don't just need reflection. They need to know what the Bible says about those situations. The Scripture says very, very plainly that everything we need for life and godliness has been made known to us by the Word of God, by the promises of God. 2 Peter 1 says that. The Bible is sufficient to handle every sin and character case we could ever face in life, the Bible is sufficient for all of it. But you need to be full of knowledge in order to wield the sword of the Spirit, well, skillfully to know which verses to apply to which situation full of knowledge is essential. And as a result, we are competent to counsel one another. Paul's phrase is able or powerful or competent, qualified perhaps, a sense that we have this ability then to counsel one another. III. How Should We Define “Good Counsel”? Well, thirdly, how should we define good counsel? Here we've left out one word, and it's the word noutheteo. It's from that word that we get the nouthetic and National Association of Nouthetic Counselors. Now, the word nouthetic is odd to everybody. You shouldn't look at it and say, "That's an odd word. I guess I'm not used to those kind of words." I think that Jay Adams specifically wanted to retain the word so that we could bump into the concept and try to understand what noutheteo means. It's a Greek word, and it's made up of two smaller Greek words. Nous meaning the mind and Tithemi meaning to put or place It has to do with putting something into the mind of another person, making them mindful of something. And the basic premise of this kind of counseling is that the mind leads and the life, the body, follows where the mind goes. It is bad thinking that leads to bad living. If you want to live differently, you have to change the mind. The Biblical word for the change of mind, is repentance, and by repentance, we can change the way that we're living. That's the basic premise of Nouthetic Counseling. Jay Adams frequently translated the word, to confront nouthetically. The basic idea here is that of warning or admonition. A sense of a serious word given in a serious situation. Paul uses the word in Acts 20:31, that's his final address to the Ephesian elders. Very serious and somber moment, and he's got the leaders of this local church around and He says to them. "So, be on your guard. Remember that for three years, I never stopped warning each of you, night and day, with tears." With tears, warning them for three years, night and day. Noutheteo. Note the passion, note the love, note the sense of warning Be on your guard against false teachers who are going to come in your midst, like ravenous wolves, not sparing the flock. He's warning them, warning them about the danger of sin. A second use we see in 1 Corinthians 4. The Corinthian Church was, in their own minds anyways, upwardly mobile. Trying to get better and better off in the world. Thinking... Having all their neighbors and their family and everybody think better and better of them, going up. But as they're going up, they're passing the apostles who were going down, like Jesus, down, becoming more humble, more rejected by the world. Paul says it seems to me that we're the off-scouring of the scum of the earth. But look at you, you're getting better and better. And so he writes very poignantly in 1 Corinthians 4, trying to show them how they're not thinking properly, about their lives in this world. And so he writes this, after all of that, he says, "I'm not writing this to shame you but to warn you as my dear children…" Again the affection, a sense of danger for them that they're not seeing the Christian life properly. Or again in Colossians 1:28. Paul says this really sums up his whole ministry. "We proclaim Him, admonishing [there's the word] and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ." This is both Christian and non-Christian. There's a sense of warning somebody based on the gospel and then continuing to warn and admonish in an ongoing sense. And then fourth, Paul says we should be doing this for each other all the time. In Colossians 3:16 he says, "Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom." So we're supposed to be doing this for each other. This noutheteo, we're supposed to be noutheticing each other all the... Is that the right word? I don't know, noutheing each other. We're supposed to be nouthetically confronting one another all the time. There are many other uses of the word but I've given you those four to give you a sense of what the word means? Let's sum up the Biblical evidence then. Good Counsel is Nouthetic Counseling and it involves a loving concern, like a father for children or like a brother for another brother. It definitely involves a sense of danger or warning. Now, you might say, "Why do we need a warning? Everything's fine in my life." Do you realize you have two mortal enemies of your soul outside of you and one mortal enemy of your soul inside of you? The two outside of you are the world's system, and Satan who runs it. The mortal enemy inside of you is called your flesh or your sin nature, which is actually attracted to that stuff out there. You are in great danger and so am I. And we will be as long as we live in the tent of this body. And so we need to be warned, we need to be protected from our own sin and from the sins of others and therefore, we have to be admonished by the Word of God. Now, Jay Adams gave three aspects of Nouthetic Counseling. First, there's a problem to be solved, there's a problem that needs to be solved. Second, the problem is solved by verbal means. Now, I'm not going to talk this morning about the role of medications in all this. I think the human mind, the brain is incredibly complex. There are brain chemical issues and all that, but let me tell you something, no sin issue in life was ever solved that way. Even if medications were used in a way that would please the Lord, it's to clear the space, so that the Word of God can then deal with the sin problem in the person's life. It's not chemicals that solve sin problems, it's repentance and the blood of Jesus Christ and the ministry of the Word of God, that's what solves sin problems. So there is a problem to be solved. Secondly, the problem is solved by verbal means. And the third is that the purpose of the counseling is to benefit the counselee. Now there's Nouthetic Counseling, that either does go on or doesn't go on in the Bible. Adams sites the example of Nathan. One of the most courageous men in Biblical history went to face David after he committed adultery with Bathsheba and murdered Bathsheba's husband to cover up his adultery, and then a year later, he's still sitting in his sin, and Nathan comes and tells a parable that draws him in to the point where he is very upset, and then Nathan points a finger and says, "You are the man." He's confronting him, nouthetically. And then there's Eli who had sons that were sinning wickedly. They were priests in the priestly family, and he never confronted them. Finally, when it was too late, in 1 Samuel 2:23, he says to his sons, "Why do you do such things? I hear from all the people about these wicked deeds of yours?" Nouthetic Counseling has much more to do with what than it does with why. Have any of you parents ever asked your kids, "Why did you do it?" And then listened to what came back. There is no possible answer. You can try for years and you'll never figure out the why questions. We already know the answer to the why question. Because all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, that's why. We don't need to plumb the depths of why. Instead Nouthetic Counseling focuses on what. What happened? Remember how God said to Cain concerning his brother Able, "What have you done? What have you done?" Nouthetic Counseling starts there. What have you done? What problem is in your life? What approach have you taken to solving it? What does God's Word say about this? You see it focuses on the what, not on the why. And the purpose of the counseling is to benefit the counselee. IV. All Christians Can and Should Grow in their Competency in Counseling Fourthly, I say to you based on this text, that all Christians can and should grow in their competency to counseling. I already said, not every Christian is fully competent to counsel. Paul had to become convinced, or persuaded that the Roman Christians were full of goodness, complete in knowledge and thus, competent to counsel one another. It's not automatic. Some Christians make very little progress in their sanctification over decades and decades of church attendance. They would not necessarily be competent to counsel. But others make remarkable progress in even short amounts of time and they are full of goodness, and complete in knowledge and therefore competent to counsel. Now I think that any Christian, spirit-filled Christian is more competent to counsel, than any non-Christian on most issues. Just the basic knowledge of scripture that you have is better than some worldly philosophy that's going to screw you up. But I believe every Christian should become more fully competent to counsel than we are presently. We can keep growing, we can keep moving and there's proof from the text. Look at Verse 15. Paul, look at his train of thought. He says they are already full of goodness, complete in knowledge and competent to counsel one another. But verse 15, KJV gives us, "Nevertheless, on some points I've written you very boldly by way of reminder." You see? So even a congregation that is competent to counsel, can still get more training or be reminded, be further sharpened in their ability to counsel their brothers and sisters in Christ. And so he wrote the book of Romans. And so now you're more competent or more trained than you were before you read Romans. So there's ongoing counseling training needed for all Christians. The fifth point I want to make to you this morning is that Biblical Counseling is essential to the two infinite journeys that God has set before each Christian and before this church. The two infinite journeys are the center piece of our ministry here. The internal journey of growth to become more and more like Jesus Christ, that's called sanctification, that's an infinite journey, because it takes infinite power to do it The second infinite journey, is worldwide disciple making based on the great commission, "Make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I've commanded." Do you see how Nouthetic Counseling fits into both? How would you prepare yourself to become a better counselor except by immersing yourself in the Word of God and growing in your own goodness and in your love for others who are hurting and who need you to do it. That will help you to grow as a Christian. It'll help other people to grow as they get the good counsel from you. It also helps you when you're having problems that you could go seek some good counsel and get over your problems too. It helps the internal journey. It also is fundamental to the external journey. Paul said, "I wrote you about these things because I was given the grace of God to be a minister of Christ Jesus so that I could present the Gentiles perfect before the throne." And so, therefore, I want you to admonish one another. I want you to train one another, I want you to use the Word of God to help each other through sin problems, so that we can finish the worldwide mission among the Gentiles. And so, I say that Nouthetic Counseling, Biblical Counseling is essential to the internal journey of becoming more and more like Jesus and the external journey of worldwide evangelization. Let me speak very practically. We have a community of people all around us who need to be reached with the gospel. We can do a number of things, but I'll tell you this, if we had a developed healthy, strong Biblical Counseling ministry and we offered Biblical Counseling to people for free and urged them to come and get Biblical solutions to their problems, I think we might see a river of people getting baptized here as they came to realize, they never come to faith in Christ at all. They don't have any foundation. And so along with the counseling these folks give the Gospel and we're going to see people saved, it's already happening in local churches around this country as they see a Biblical Counseling model even to evangelism and outreach. V. Application Now, what application can we take from this text for ourselves? Well, first, I hope it's already happened this morning. Understand Biblical Counseling I'd like you to understand the difference between Biblical Counseling and Christian counseling. Not all Christian counseling is Biblical Counseling. So therefore, I hope you understand, Nouthetic Counseling and what it means. What Biblical Counseling, that's the first application, understand Biblical Counseling. It is the basic idea that the Bible is sufficient to solve people's sin problems. Seek Biblical Counseling As Needed Secondly, can I exhort you to be discerning from this sermon time on, to never again settle for anything less than Biblical Counseling? If you're sitting down with a counselor, and they're not opening the Word of God with you, they're not sharing from the Word of God, they are not going to help you ultimately. So therefore seek nothing less than Biblical Counseling for your own counseling needs. Get Trained! Thirdly, can I urge you to get trained yourself in Biblical Counseling. I would urge you to consider the NANC Conference is coming up three times in this fall, September 8th and 9th. It's not too late, it's not too late for you to go. And what you're going to find there is a whole world opening up to you that shows the practical application of the Word of God in everyday issues that people face. That maybe even you're facing right now in your life. So, get trained. Use the Word of God to Solve Problems for Friends, Co-Workers Fourth used the Word of God, then to help solve problems for the friends and family and people around you in your life. Assume that the Word of God has the solution and minister the Word of God in their lives. Do it with your co-workers, people are going to open up to you be available to that. And then start showing them how the Word of God can be brought to bear on the problems of their lives. Yearn to be a Biblical counselor, a fully-trained competent to counsel, man or woman here in this church, so that you can use your wisdom to minister to men and women as they have needs. Pray for a Developed Biblical Counseling Ministry Here at FBC Fifth, pray for a developed Biblical Counseling Ministry here at FBC. It's going to take time. The vision I have for using counseling as an outreach tool in this community is going to take years and years to see it come to full fruition, but no time like the present. Let's start now, let's start this September, let's start with some of the training that Scott Markle and others are going to be doing on Wednesday evenings. Biblical training, be part of that. Say I want to be trained, I want to learn how to use the Bible to help people. Pray for Evangelistic Fruit And then finally pray for evangelistic fruit, as a result of all this. Wouldn't it be exciting to see people brought to faith in Christ that way? See them get up in the baptismal area and just say, "This is what God's done in my life, my whole life, has changed. I came to realize that I didn't know Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Everything has changed. Thank God for Jesus. Thank God for the Gospel and for the Word that has the power to change lives." Oh, I want to hear those testimonies. Pray for evangelistic fruit. And if you're here today and you've never given your life to Christ, Jesus is the Wonderful Counselor, he's the one that gives the good advice through the Word and through other believers. Come to faith in Christ. Trust in him, that his blood is sufficient for your sins. That's why he came. "For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost." Close with me in prayer please.
