This 14 week training course will help you in your personal growth and confidence of the sufficiency of God’s word for all of life. Essentials will equip you to be able to walk along-side those who are struggling, pointing them to the help and hope found in the gospel of Jesus Christ as you develop hands-on strategies for real-life situations.
This course includes 5 in-person meetings scheduled throughout the course for more learning, case studies and panel discussions. Guest speakers and biblical counsellors will share their insights on specific topics including: Anxiety and Depression, Struggles in Marriage, Addictions, Same-sex Attraction, and Sexual Abuse.
