Description

If you are a biblical counselor, you have come face to face with many forms of human brokenness. It is overwhelming at times to see the effects of human sinfulness and depravity in the world. Men and women live in circumstances touched by suffering, substance abuse, anger, conflict, bitterness, depression, grief, sexual immorality, and shame.

In this episode, hear Jeff Christianson talk about the work of the Holy Spirit and finding the balance between "Charismania" and a "lifeless spirituality." Listeners will also hear Jeff's testimony, as Jeff goes back in time thirty years ago to Los Angeles, California and shares a story about how God saved a young and long-haired Jeff Christianson who had hit rock bottom in a world of hot rods, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.
