The Foundations Series
Two modules of training give you a good base for understanding the basics and the dynamics of discipleship and soul-care.
You can decide from there whether that will suffice, or if you want to press on toward commissioning or certification.
Ideal for individuals or churches looking to get a better understanding of biblical counseling and discipleship.
