This world is full of different voices that keep telling us who are are, trying very hard to feed us with their worldview/value systems and ultimately to win our heart and loyalty. Every counselor/therapist has his/her own worldview and provides counseling based on that particular worldview. Here are two typical voices (worldviews) that we hear. Which one do you listen to? And how does that impact your own life and how you see the world?
There are many different terms concerning the word “counseling”, for example, Biblical Counseling, Christian Counseling, Secular Counseling, Psychotherapy, Christian Psychotherapy, Therapy, etc. These terms could cause much confusion, so I will try to briefly explain what Biblical Counseling is about and hope that will help bring a clearer understanding of this term.

Have you ever reacted quickly and emotionally to what another person had just said, without asking them what they really meant by what they said and getting clarification, but only found out later that you had misunderstood them, that they didn’t mean what you thought they meant? 你是否曾对别人说的话快速和情绪化地作出反应，却没有先问对方他们究竟是什么意思或请他们作出澄清，而后来却发现是你误会了他们，他们所要表达的意思并不是你以为的那样？

本系列文章连载将简要地分析 ACT 的理论，以及基督徒如何从圣经的角度看待 ACT。我们会发现，和许多其它的心理学理论一样，ACT 对人和人的问题有一些很好的观察，但是谈到这些问题背后的原因和解决方法时就与圣经真理背道而驰了。
Counseling is a journey that we walk alongside someone – The Lord leads us to meet them in the wilderness of their life, and we listen to their heart’s cry of sadness and/or trouble; we ask them questions and listen to them intently and patiently with compassion, drawing out the human heart that is like deep waters; we walk this journey of hardship with them, we communicate openly and honestly, and we pray together, crying out to God seeking His mercy and help… 辅导就是一段与对方同行的旅程——在她们徘徊迷失于生命旷野之地时，神让我们与她们相遇，并倾听她们发自内心的悲伤哭喊或烦恼倾诉；我们满怀同情地耐心询问与聆听，汲引如深水般的人心；我们与她们同踏这段艰难的旅程，开诚布公地沟通，并同她们祷告，呼求神的怜悯与帮助……
