A SEMINARY PROFESSOR'S COUNSELING SESSION (Humor)

Warren Wiersbe in his book Be Myself tells of serving as an instructor at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.  While there he found himself in an interesting counseling situation.

“You never know what surprises a counseling session may bring. The wife of one of my students came to see me one day to express her grief at not being able to have a child. She was a nurse, and every time she assisted at a birth, it broke her heart that she wasn’t a mother. I gave her the phone number of a fertility doctor who had been recommended to a couple I knew and forgot about the matter. . . 

“A few months later, during coffee and conversation with a couple of the homiletics professors, my counselee came rushing into my office exclaiming, ‘I’m pregnant! I’m pregnant! And I owe it all to you!” It took some explaining to my associates, believe me, but I was glad she was going to be a mother.”    p. 262
