@johndyer It's working now!

Hey @johndyer, I love bestcommentaries.com. Today it seems to be defaulting to a non-English language, even when you change the language to English. Thanks!

This is an amazing development for Christian counseling in the US.

A federal appeals court should have applied a different level of scrutiny to determine whether a Colorado law infringed on a Christian counselor’s protected speech, the Supreme Court ruled in an 8-1 vote on March 31. baptistpress.com/resource-libra…

@thedispatch @KSPrior Feeling the excitement you feel when two friends meet!

Welcome @KSPrior to The Dispatch!

@aka_Gammy Congrats!

@JordanStoryline Glad you're writing on this. So needed! There are few resources in the Christian counseling world on OCD

A recent request for resources on OCD prompted me to make a list of biblical counseling resources for addressing OCD that I want to share with any who might want it. Most are from a biblical counseling perspective. If you want the pdf with hyperlinks please comment with your email. This list does not indicate that I've reviewed or endorsed every piece of the content. Moreover, I do not include the more comprehensive index of published BC resources on OCD that I interact with in my dissertation but you will be able to find those in there once it becomes available. #biblicalcounseling #Biblecn #OCD #biblicalcounselingOCD #OCDresources

I think it's true that the ABC moderators were helpful to Harris. They fact-checked Trump extensively and virtually never fact-checked Harris. But that's not why he lost. He lost because he was the unhinged they're-eating-pets, the-election-was-stolen, J6-was-no-big-deal guy.

@dwmclaurin I guess he's going for the modern Hebrew translation of "Philippians"?

@edstetzer @mariemburrus and I have been enjoying Brooklyn 99

I would love to have you join us for the first SEBTS Redeem & Restore counseling conference. Our goal is for you to walk away with biblical and common grace tools to immediately enhance your counsel and care for others. Registration will be available soon!

@kelseybhamilton Congrats!!

It happened. I printed and submitted my dissertation today! All that remains is my oral defense this fall. #phdlife

@MeganEDickerson I'm picking up trace amounts of @stevemckinion in this pile

Made it through this stack, took a Latin test, and wrapped up classes for the summer! Now for a few days focused on other things- I always read a novel and do a home project between semesters- and it’ll be time to start reading for the fall!

@matthewalapine I learned the sound of the northern cardinal b/c I wanted to know what was aggressively chirping outside my window at 5am 😆

Morning conversation with the cardinals

@WarrenKinghorn @DukePsychiatry Very excited about this, hope you are well!

I'm grateful to be part of an amazing group of scholars and clinicians in @DukePsychiatry

America after the debate: Prince William, will you take us back and be our king?

I think the 3 goals above most honor Christ. What if BC was a movement that introduced them kindly, generously, and gently into every kind of Christian counseling? That's my hope.

Was J Adams (1970) contaminated when he used behaviorist terms to describe homosexuality as a "learned activity"? Was W Mack (1979) infected when he considered the "environmental and intra-familial factors" that may predispose kids to be gay? Does E Welch get contaminated @ AACC?

It may be risky NOT to use clinical information in some situations. Using the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale may be essential to determine if a counselee needs to be hospitalized.
