Beware. What Elyse Fitpatrick means by "biblical counseling" is nothing like what Jay Adams, Wayne Mack, John MacArthur, and almost everyone else means. She believes that obeying Christ and keeping His commandments is "moralism." She teaches a form of antinomianism that is almost universally rejected by those in the biblical counseling movement. She is NOT a member of the National Association of Nouthetic Counselors (now renamed the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors) as her bio here states. Her "MA in Biblical Counseling" is from an unaccredited "seminary" that is widely regarded as a diploma mill.

Where are the reviews that were already on this page? I came in to read them again and they are deleted, probably because they were negative reviews. Come on Logos, what's going on?
