Beth Claes has a website titled Wrestled Faith. This has been her lived experience. Beth was a psychology professor for ten years and has shifted her profession to Biblical Counseling. We have a fascinating conversation about Beth’s journey, the importance of worldview, how to counsel others, what the Bible says about people’s real-life problems, and, of course, hope! As we spoke, I was struck by Beth’s graciousness, wisdom, and humility. She is a woman worth listening to.
