People have called upon churches to take over the therapeutic counseling of persons with mental disabilities. But the churches have not always been able to do it. Why not? The irresistible lure of innovation, of inventing new ways to do things, has drawn them away from the perfect methodology of the great physicians of the soul. So they have lost hold of the exact symptomology and precise healing techniques given to these physicians of the soul and used by holy counselors since the beginning of Christianity. Modern churches have quite often resorted to secular psychology, which views the mind very differently from the way it is viewed by the prophets, apostles, and all the later physicians of the soul.
