In episode thirty-three of the Re(Nyoo)ed Mind Podcast, Dr. Luther Smith, discusses various counseling models, particularly the Reformed and administrative models, and their approaches to idolatry. In this episode, Dr. Luther Smith delves into the concept of idolatry, exploring its definitions and nuances in both Hebrew and Greek contexts. He discusses how idolatry is often misunderstood and emphasizes that the Scriptures refers to idolatry as false religions and greed, rather than personal relationships or emotional states. The conversation also touches on the implications for counseling practices, particularly in distinguishing between idolatry and other issues individuals may face.

Welcome to the Re(Nyoo)ed (Pronounced ”Renewed”) Mind Podcast. Your host, Dr. Luther Smith, explores the world of counseling biblically and bridges the gap to a more holistic understanding of how Scripture, psychology, and counseling intersect.
