About this course
In a world saturated with sin, there is no way that Christians are going to be living perfectly healthy trouble-free lives. Therefore, leaders and others need to develop the necessary skills to help strengthen the Body of Christ. By the end of this course you should be able to:
Demonstrate broad understanding of Christian counselling as a field within pastoral care, including its terminology, basis, goals, and techniques.
Appreciate the changes that take place in different stages of life, and use this knowledge to enrich your own life as a counsellor.
Use the Bible appropriately as a counselling tool for people struggling with personal issues such as anxiety, unforgiveness, depression, and illness.
Help people to cope better with child-rearing, violence, abuse, crises, and grief.
