I'm Dale Johnson and you're listening to Truth and Love, a podcast of the Association of Certified

0:18.2

Biblical Counselors, where we seek to provide biblical solutions to the problems that people face.

Once again this week, I am joined by one of our board members, Lance Quinn.

0:28.4

I've been around ACBC for a long time in biblical counseling as well.

0:32.7

He's a pastor at Bethany Bible Church in Thousand Oaks, California,

0:37.4

and he's transitioning to move

0:39.5

from California to Jupiter, Florida. Can't get enough of the beach, I suppose. And he's going to take

0:44.0

on a new role there, executive vice president of the Expositor's Seminary. And I love what you guys

0:49.9

are doing in the church and teaching and training young pastors and the experience, not just the

1:45.0

common text and what are some of the common mistakes that we see counselors make in using the

1:50.3

wrong text at times. Well, it's a joy to be with you, Dale, and I so enjoy these podcasts because
