Author: Association of Certified Biblical Counselors June 1, 2026 Duration: 20:04

This week on Truth in Love, Dr. Dale Johnson is joined by Dr. Stuart Scott to talk through the process of biblical decision-making. They discuss where current confusion and dangers lie, prominent methods, the sufficiency of God's Word, and resources for biblical decision-making.


How do ancient scriptures speak to modern anxieties, relational fractures, and the deep questions of identity and purpose? Truth in Love, a production of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors, moves beyond theoretical discussion to offer practical, compassionate wisdom grounded in a Christian worldview. Each episode engages with the real and often messy struggles of daily life, from personal mental and emotional challenges to broader cultural currents in philosophy, science, and society. The conversations here are not about quick fixes but about applying enduring biblical truth to the complexities of human experience. You’ll hear seasoned counselors and thinkers explore how faith provides a coherent framework for understanding suffering, fostering healing, and cultivating resilience. This podcast serves as a thoughtful companion for anyone seeking depth and substance, weaving together spirituality, theology, and practical counsel. It’s a space where difficult topics are met with both grace and clarity, always pointing toward hope and redemption. Tune in for conversations that are as intellectually engaging as they are personally transformative, all aimed at equipping listeners to live and love more fully.
