[edit] Cleaned up...

I have gone through most of this article and made sure the tone was not Christian-centric, but I can't be authoritative on the details of the article.

A degree in "Christian Counseling" is not required

Do universities offer degrees literally titled "Christian Counseling", or should this be

"Degrees in Christian counseling are available but are not commonly required for practice"?

Further over-capitalization of "Christian counseling" would also have to be reduced, if so.

It's likely this article's information needs clean-up on an organizational level, but I'm in Grammar Nazi mode right now and can't see past one sentence at a time.

Note: This article was evidently written in a very Christian-centric fashion ("Bible", not "Christian Bible"; "God", not "Christian God"; "a Christian" (qualified noun), not "Christian" (simple adjective) ). Some text used unnecessary jargon ("Holy Spirit"), some text used relevant jargon without linking to the available article (Christ), and some text even undervalued Christian counseling's impact by implying that it may perform differently from standard counseling.

If writing on a niche topic, please remember that Wikipedia is for all audiences, and is best utilized as a reference for people that do not understand even the basics of the topic you're writing on. --Caidence (talk) 01:42, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
