Lesson Overview

In this lesson, Dr. Crabb discusses the radical nature of the proposed goal for SoulCare-to arouse an appetite for God that is stronger than all other appetites.

Lesson Objectives

When you complete this lesson, you should be able to do the following:

  • Describe the fundamental goal of SoulCare and its importance.
  • Explain how “helping people do what’s right” or “fixing what’s wrong” prevents the goal of SoulCare from being reached.
  • State the compelling vision of SoulCare and explain why it is vitally important to effective counseling.
Personal Reflection

As you proceed through this lesson have the following question in mind.
Consider the radical nature of stated goal for SoulCare: To arouse an appetite for God that is stronger than all other appetites. Think about what is being said ... that you can actually long to know God more than you long for anything else (i.e. good health, a good marriage, godly kids, good feelings about yourself, etc)? Do you believe this is a worthwhile goal? An achievable goal? Explain your answer.
