Counseling Skills II
(Skills I)

Course Description:  This course is designed to introduce students to foundational issues of human growth, discipleship, and healing as they relate to lay Christian counseling in the local church or other setting.  Through practical; hands-on experience, students learn how to listen to God, themselves, and others, overcome barriers to effective helping, respond to inappropriate behavior, and reinforce scriptural truth through prayer.  The development of a solid theological foundation assists students in learning the knowledge, skill, and character, necessary for effective relational Christian counseling.
