<p><img alt="Help &amp; Hope Podcast" src="/sites/default/images/hh/hh144.jpg" style="margin-right: 8px;" align="left" height="144" width="144" />This week we invite you into Dr. Winston Smith's Marriage Counseling class to hear a complete lecture on "Communication in Marriage." We wanted to share this lecture with you because we believe it to be an excellent example of CCEF's commitment to bring "Christ to Counseling and Counseling to the Church." In this lecture Dr. Smith will help us see why good communication in marriage starts not with the lips, but with the heart. (Part 2 will be posted next week.)</p>

<p>This week we invite you into Dr. David Powlison's Dynamics of Biblical Change class to hear a complete lecture on "Prayer Requests." We wanted to share this lecture with you because we believe it to be an excellent example of CCEF's commitment to bring "Christ to Counseling and Counseling to the Church." Dr. Powlison teaches us that the way we as pastors, counselors, or group leaders model sharing prayer requests can actually become a teachable moment for others in our churches, helping them to better apprehend the grace and mercy of Christ.</p>
