  • Episode #32: Discipleship & Counseling Biblically
    May 21 2025
    In this episode of The Re(Nyoo)ed Mind Podcast, Dr. Luther Smith explores the intersection of biblical counseling and discipleship. He discusses the etymology of 'disciple' and its association to what has been called "The Great Commission." He explores the frequency of the term 'disciple' in scripture, particularly in historical accounts, and discusses the implications of the Great Commission, noting its absence in the epistles. Dr. Smith distinguishes between discipleship and counseling, emphasizing that while both utilize biblical information, their objectives and methods differ significantly. He argues that discipleship could be defined as "mentorship" and building a comprehensive understanding of biblical truths, whereas counseling focuses on addressing specific problems through assessment and skill-based techniques. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding these distinctions for effective ministry and personal growth.
