And maybe our instinct is right!But it’s not our job to fix someone else’s problem or fix them.We’re prone to impatience when another person struggles to grow and change at the rate we want. Too often we’re quick to give our opinion or solve one problem without realizing we’ve taken a person’s agency or ignored a root problem that’s actually causing the harmful behavior. When we minister to others, our job is to encourage growth in biblical knowledge, self-awareness, and confidence so they can effectively navigate their own challenges through consulting with God, with others, and, when appropriate, with us.Counseling isn’t about fixing people. It’s about encouraging people to grow in their relationship with Christ and to learn how to hear His voice.Resources:S9 Ep. 7 / Trauma: Helping Someone Tell Their Trauma StoryS7 Ep. 5 / You Have a StorySeason 10 of Conversational Counseling on “Do as I Say Not as I Do.”To sign up for free visuals and discussion questions for this season click here.Our theme music is by As Isaac.This podcast is made possible by engineer and producer Shane Selby, executive producer Meleah Smith, and generous donors.Known Ministries is Alex Kocher and Brenda Payne.
