			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week I posted the <a href="http://competentcounseling.com/2009/02/19/a-free-counseling-session-for-you/" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/competentcounseling.com/2009/02/19/a-free-counseling-session-for-you/?referer=');">counseling notes from one of my counseling sessions</a> I had with a friend. In less than a week that post soared to the most popular post, by far, of the 300+ posts since I began blogging last July. The popularity of this post has been humbling as well as amazing to me.</p>
<p>To be honest, I am not sure how to think about your responses. For sure I am grateful to God that he would serve my friends in such a way. And I&#8217;m wonderfully encouraged because this is what I want to do: serve the counseling world with Gospel-centered, practical helps.</p>
<h3><span style="color:#333300;">Here are some of your responses:</span></h3>
<p><em><strong>WOW!! Thanks</strong> &#8211; it could not have come at a better time! Although I did not request this and normally would never have thought of using a transcript in this manner &#8211; it was exactly what a friend needed to hear &#8211; Only God knows if he will read it, but I was at a loss as to how to continue with him. Praise the Lord &#8211; He is Good!! If he responds, I will be glad to pass on the news!</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Rick, thank you </strong>so much for posting an example of your notes for the biblical counseling session. Being educated and trained as a secular psychologist, I had concerns if I could effectively make the change to a biblical counseling orientation. Thanks to your post, I have confidence that I can successfully make the transition. Thanks again for your willingness to enlighten.</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Thanks for posting this Rick.</strong> It was very encouraging. Also it reminds us that while we all bring our own “style” of sinning to the table, the remedy is the same for us all.</em></p>
<p><em>Thanks also to your CIT for doing such a fine job of taking the notes and compiling them in a useful teaching format.</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Last night I was crying</strong> out to God because I could not distinguish between my “Catholic” guilt, which involves everything, as I am not perfect “as He is perfect” (or mature enough!) and “real guilt”. I asked Him to show me as I am so burdened down. I want to help others, but am confused about this issue. What a blessing to have a <a href="http://competentcounseling.com/2009/02/19/a-free-counseling-session-for-you/" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/competentcounseling.com/2009/02/19/a-free-counseling-session-for-you/?referer=');">counseling session</a> about myself right in front of me. Can you continue to counsel me, ah, Cheryl, in another session? </em></p>
