This course has greatly increased my confidence in utilizing God’s Word in my counseling practice. Prior to taking this course, I felt intimidated and was not sure where I would start with incorporating God’s Word. I feel like I now have numerous ideas of where to incorporate Scripture as well as a good set of skills in how to apply God’s Word. I also really appreciated the readings as part of the coursework.

I was amazed at how early in the course I was able to integrate information we covered in my actual sessions to help clients. There have been multiple scenarios in session where I was able to use what we learned to help alleviate emotional pain for my client, provide them hope, and remind them of biblical truths. I would highly recommend this course to my peers.

I learned a great deal not only about using God’s Word in my sessions but also about the church and finding greater encouragement in my personal faith.
