Personal counseling stories on this edition of Truth and Love.

I'm Heath Lambert and you're listening to Truth and Love, a podcast of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors,

where we seek to provide biblical solutions for the problems that people face.

I'm joined this week on the podcast by Sean Perron, who is the operations director at the

Association of Certified Biblical Counselors. He's joining us this week because the last few weeks

we have been dealing with your questions and answers on the podcast. We've received

some feedback about some of the things that came up on those Q&A podcasts and I asked

Sean to come and help me deal with that on this podcast. So Sean, welcome back to the podcast.

We're glad you're here. Thanks, Heath. So a couple weeks ago, we did two podcasts

on counseling questions part one and counseling questions part two, which our listeners can go

access on the archives under truth and love, under resources on our website. And from those

questions, you told a couple of stories about what was a counseling case that was difficult for you.

And we received some feedback about people wanting to know how those cases ended and just to hear

more about personal stories of people that you've ministered to. And so my question is a broad one,

but I'd love to know what has been the most difficult

counseling case that you've ever encountered.

So the reason that question is a fascinating one is because actually I do get asked that

question a fair amount of times when I'm traveling and speaking and interacting with people

and people always want to know, hey, what was the hardest case you've ever done?

My answer to that is always the same.

So I'll say here what I always say, but then I'll respond in a way that I think will be more

satisfying for your question and our listeners.
