I had read in Dr. Crabbs book how we are all are living to fill the need of both significance and security, however this need can only be filled by God. Crabb then says that without God a person can only get as high as power when trying to fill significance and pleasure when trying to fill security. This quest for power and pleasure ultimately slips in to violence and immorality. This is where I think some of the hospice idea comes in. Secular counselors try to help their clients not do things that hurt themselves or others once they have slipped to the violence and immorality, but that’s all they can do. Secular counselors can’t fill the need of significance and security in their clients lives only God can, and they don’t even tell them that. So they never get the need filled they only keep doing things that make them feel a little better till they die. You are right, sounds just like hospice to me.DHarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06692492159475263221noreply@blogger.com
