Be a part of testifying to Christ and to the sufficiency of His Word!

While receiving my supervision from Jim, I learned the extremely helpful and practical 10 universal truths. The focus of my counseling sessions now are based on these. The truths flow from one to the next. Indeed, they help every counselee face their struggles and suffering with eyes on Christ. I greatly benefitted from Jim teaching me to effectively and more confidently use narratives and heart-probing questions.

I worked with a young teenager who suffered from extreme anxiety and depression. Through biblical counseling, she learned how to trust Jesus as she studied Bible verses and learned who Jesus really is via His power, His love, His deity, and what He did for us at the cross. She was able to see hope and that Jesus is with her through all the storms in her life. He is always in the boat with her (Mark 4:35-41). She learned how to live to God’s design and to fear God not people. She is staying close to her Bible reading and trusting God’s word. She is also sharing what she learned with her classmates.

The Lord did great redeeming work in me as I counseled under supervision at Rod and Staff. I grew in seeing my own sin and how my motive of self-benefit controls what I do even while I think I am living for the Lord. The Lord worked in me to be satisfied with Christ alone. The Scriptures took deeper root in me as I learned to apply truth to life—my thinking changed and God worked in my soul to live for Him instead of self. My time in counseling supervision has been the most sanctifying time in my life as a Christian.
