[#25 Q1] I realize I am tripartite, I have a body, a soul, and a spirit. If I have a physical problem, I go to a doctor. If I have a psychological issue, I find a mental health professional. If I have a spiritual problem, I go to the Lord and seek fellowship from more mature believers. In 1 Peter, it says that the Lord is the Shepherd and Overseer of our souls. How does this relate to taking proper care of our tripartite being? What can you tell us about who the Lord is as it relates to this, and also, who are we?
In Question and Response (Q&R) sessions, a group of invited panelists respond to questions submitted by students and young adults during the week. The panelists are generally older and more experienced brothers in the Lord who have the burden to respond to our questions by sharing both the truth from the Bible and their experiences in life.
It is important to point out that these brothers do not presume to have the answers to our questions. Rather, they are willing to provide a response in fellowship, and to encourage us to personally go to the Lord and consider all these things before Him.
