About this episode
Do you feel that you are mature and have you trained yourself and has God trained you in effective spiritual discernment? In this podcast episode, Pastor Jeff talks about having the discernment and maturity to counsel others.
More than just gifting alone, becoming an expert biblical counselor or an instrument of God's counsel requires that you mature on a regular basis. People might be gifted and the Lord might use you. You would want that to grow because you are maturing spiritually so that you will be used to your full potential.
1 John 3:16, "By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren."
