Stories of Transformation

Dennis Beaman, Chaplain

“I am now a chaplain of two hospice organizations here and locally, and then I’m starting a grief share program at our church for those who have lost a loved one.

So it’s just opened a lot of doors for me, because I’ve had opportunities now to really talk to people who are dying, obviously, in hospice, and it’s been a real blessing.”

David Talbot, Chaplain

“This has changed my mind, my life, and I’m really thankful for what you do.

I became a chaplain in January and started counseling inmates, you know, way early on, while I was learning my stuff, and it was a great way to practice what I was learning. This thing just started it all, I didn’t even know what biblical counseling was three years ago."

Robin Gaynor-Comer

“The rewrites were a significant part of my growth in both theology and biblical counseling. They challenged me to look deeper into the scriptures to demonstrate my understanding of passages.

As a result, I now have a solid theological foundation that directly confronts the world’s wisdom and equips me to counsel in God’s way.”

Irita Reagan

“I do believe that the biblical counseling academy has thoroughly equipped me in being prepared for the writing of these exams.

I do feel thoroughly equipped for all the good work God has for me to do in biblical counseling for His glory and work! Thank you!”

Micah Heist

“Overall, I know I have not arrived yet, but I am ready to move on into a deeper and more meaningful ministry of discipling others through the most difficult trials life has to give.

I look forward to seeing how the Lord will transform lives as I am able to bring them to the Wonderful Counselor.”

Sarah M

“I never imagined I could counsel others with biblical confidence.

The live coaching, prayerful support, and clear guidance made all the difference.”

Angela S.

“It is fun to connect with others who have a heart for biblical counseling and to receive supervision that leads to certification.”
