Overview and Objectives
Lesson Overview
Dr. Crabb shifts from our study of passions within the provider of SoulCare to a focus on wisdom for entering another person’s life. One reality that should be apparent to you is this: troublesome passions will be present within us until glory. Given that reality, can we even hope to become powerful providers of SoulCare for others?
Lesson Objectives
When you complete this lesson, you should be able to do the following:
- Compare and contrast the terms stubborn soul and damaged self in describing people in need.
- Explain and illustrate how the categories of fallenness, image-bearer, and new covenant realities guide the SoulCare provider.
- Describe and illustrate how the spirit-led heart of the person being helped can be stimulated by the release of the spirit-led heart of the SoulCare provider.
Personal Reflection
As you proceed through this lesson have the following question in mind.
What was stirred in you as you heard Dr. Crabb share part of his story regarding his parents? Suggest a response to him that reflects legitimate empathy to a disappointed image-bearer. Also, suggest a response that reflects your understanding that Dr. Crabb’s root problem is a stubborn soul.
