God knows us.  He knows what we love, hate, cherish, and seek.  We usually don’t.  So we need His gracious hand to humble, expose, and redeem us.  His Word helps us see and understand ourselves and other people rightly.  In this session, John Henderson discusses a means to explain our attitudes, thoughts, emotions, and actions according to the revealed Word of God.  He talks about why the regeneration of our souls matters so much and illustrates the truth that whatever rules our hearts will rule our lives.

This is a session from the Biblical Counseling Training Conference hosted by Faith Church in Lafayette, Indiana. 

People are looking for the hope that there are answers for their hurts, their difficulties, and the challenges they face. Since 1985, the Biblical Counseling Training Conference has been equipping ministry professionals and lay leaders to skillfully, confidently, and lovingly minister God's Word to those looking for answers.
