CM503 Christian Counseling

This course examines a multi-disciplinary approach to counseling drawing on insights from Scripture, incarnational Trinitarian theology, and psychology regarding God, humanity (including sin, human change and well-being) and Christian ministry. Application of these insights is then made to the practice of short-term, church-based counseling ministries that participate effectively, through the Holy Spirit, in the ongoing ministry of Jesus Christ, the "Wonderful Counselor."
