Again, someone who is serving God and giving to Him yet not fulfilling their God-given responsibilities may have the right heart yet be doing the wrong thing. For example, pastors do this all of the time. Pastors often try to help their congregation, evangelize the lost, and serve others but neglect their own wife and…
I switched it on you. Did you know it is possible to do the wrong thing but with the right heart? For example, someone who wants to help a relative who is addicted to drugs may give that person money with a right heart to help them! However, the problem comes in when the drug…
Here’s a list of right actions with the wrong heart motive in parentheses ( ) : Church service (for the glory of SELF and not for the glory of God – I Cor. 10:31) Church attendance (for the wrong reason of meeting others, socially OR thinking you get a “checkmark” in heaven) Reading the Bible…
Did you know that you can attend church for the wrong reasons? Going to church for any other reason than to worship the Lord and to glorify Him is a wrong reason. Did you know that you can read your Bible for the wrong heart reason? For example, some people read the Bible to find…

Think about it – According to the Bible, the entire human race began in the first chapters of Genesis as God created Adam from the dust of the earth and formed Eve from the rib of Adam. These first two people were married by God and then they produced offspring which includes ALL human beings according to Scripture….
Charles Darwin devised a theory that changed the world. His theory greatly impacted the field of psychology, too, which affects how we view counseling. In fact, in one old psych textbook of mine, an entire page was dedicated to Darwin’s theory and how it brought “enlightenment” to the psychological field. How sad! If only they…
As biblical counselors, we know what we want the counselee to change into – the answer is – Christ. We want our counselees to become like the Lord Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit. We have an example to learn from when we read the Holy Scriptures. Jesus is our example and…
I just read an article about a man who placed two bets on the World Series – one bet for each team! He couldn’t lose it all, but he couldn’t win it all either! To me, this is a cowardly bet. Think about it spiritually: Are you living out your life (in a spiritual sense)…
