Ph.d. In Christian Counseling - Essential Components
In most U.S.states, anybody can call himself (or herself) a Christian counselor with few, if any, qualifications. And there are numerous internet sites where you can buy a Ph.D. in nearly any subject.
Some have put these two facts together and advertised themselves as a Ph.D. in Christian counseling. I, as both a Christian and an academic, see this practice as dangerous. But it is not the job of the legislature to correct the hazard; it is the responsibility of higher-learning institutions.
