| 0:00.0 | What about the unconscious on this edition of Truth and Love? |
| 0:11.5 | I'm Dale Johnson, and you're listening to Truth and Love, a podcast of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors, |
| 0:17.5 | where we seek to provide biblical solutions for the problems that people face. |
| 0:22.3 | And this week on the podcast, I am excited that we get to invite Craig Rowe, one of our fellows |
| 0:28.4 | and longtime certified members with ACBC, to join us to talk about this issue of the unconscious. |

| 1:24.9 | director of Counseling Center certification, was able to sit down with |
| 1:29.7 | Craig Rowe to discuss this topic that still has so much sway in our culture, even in our |
| 1:36.4 | evangelical culture, this idea of the unconscious that was so prevalent in Freudian thinking. |
| 1:43.9 | Well, Craig, thanks for joining us today for the podcast. |
| 1:47.4 | Really interesting topic about the unconscious. |
| 1:51.0 | I think probably many of our listeners have run into this term, |
