Equipped to Counsel 2018-2019
Course description.
This course is designed to equip the members of Crossway with the ability to apply the truth of God’s Word in personal and specific ways to the heart and struggles of others. We will address both the theology and practice of gospel-centered counseling. Participants will be prepared to minister effectively to individuals, couples, and families with a biblical perspective on change in the context of the local church. Issues such as addictions, anxiety, anger, depression will be covered. Lay counselors, pastors, small group leaders, ministry staff, and anyone wanting to learn biblical soul care will all benefit from this course.
