Teaching Resources for Equipping Counselors

In the past year, I’ve had many educators, equippers, pastors, and biblical counselors ask me to send them teaching resources for Equipping Counselors for Your Church.

In response, I’ve created:

• A One-Day, 8-Hour Edition: This would be ideal:

 For the local church leader who wants to empower his team to launch a biblical counseling ministry in the church. This could be a one-day interactive seminar or four evening sessions of two hours each in a local church model.

 For the college, seminary, or graduate school professor who wants to use Equipping Counselors for Your Church as one part of a class on equipping, but not as the full focus of the course. This could be one day/one section of a semester-long course.

• A One-Week/One-Semester, 32-to-40-Hour Edition: This would be ideal:

 For the college, seminary, or graduate school professor who wants to use Equipping Counselors for Your Church as the primary focus of the course. You have everything you need to use Equipping Counselors for Your Church in the classroom setting.
