Biblical Counseling (Semester 3)

During our first year we learned about the Biblical authority and necessity for Biblical Counseling. We ended by studying Biblical applications to specific life issues such as anger, depression, and anxiety. We also practiced and developed counseling skills through case studies. The second year will focus on observing experienced counselors interacting with people in similar circumstances that our brothers and sisters might experience. Class participants will pair up and observe counseling videos outside of class. Class time will be spent evaluating the observed counseling sessions.

Biblical Counseling (Semester 2)

Simply stated Biblical Counseling is based on the premise that man’s problems of living do not originate in brain chemistry but rather in their hearts. Aberrant thinking and aberrant behavior always arise from our fractured relationships with God and with each other. This course will study biblical applications to specific life issues such as anger, depression, and anxiety. Counseling skills will be practiced and developed through case studies.

Biblical Counseling (Semester 1)

Simply stated Biblical Counseling is based on the premise that man’s problems of living do not originate in brain chemistry but rather in their hearts. Aberrant thinking and aberrant behavior always arise from our fractured relationships with God and with each other. In other words, absent a physical cause (think thyroid issue, diabetic complications) our problems and issues arise from sin. The solution to these problems and issues comes from the process of discipleship involving the study and application of God’s inspired, inerrant and infallible Word.
