Episode #21: The Five Senses, the Immaterial, and Counseling Biblically

In episode twenty-one of the Renewed Mind Podcast, Dr. Luther Smith discusses the transition of co-host Maddie Madeline, and delves into the complex relationship between the material and immaterial aspects of humanity. He contrasts secular and biblical psychology, emphasizing the importance of recognizing both aspects in understanding human nature. The conversation culminates in an analysis of Jesus' teachings, particularly the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus (c.f., Luke 16:20-31), exploring themes of memory, cognition, and the dual nature of humanity—material and immaterial. He discusses the implications of these themes for counseling from a biblical perspective, emphasizing the importance of addressing both aspects of a person. The conversation also touches on the role of counselors in understanding and guiding individuals through their experiences, particularly in relation to forgiveness.
