We help you develop an effective counseling and training ministry
in and through your church by establishing a mentoring relationship with you.
Seven elements in our Ministry Mentorship.
What areas do you need the most help with?
What all does the Ministry Development Mentorship Include?
A. Meet Twice a Month with LCBCC Director
Partner with the LCBCC Director, Tim Bryant to set up or strengthen a Soul Care Ministry in your church or a Counseling Center in your community utilizing five elements in our development strategy.
- The process begins with a personal vision meeting with you by our director. Tim will tailor the elements of our Step Up Strategy with you in light of your ministry context so that what you need and desire from us most will begin first.
- This is followed by an option for a site visit to your church or community for a group vision meeting inviting key leaders and those people who you think would make good potential members in your counseling ministry.
- As all three of these things above are occurring, five of your counseling team members can begin being equipped through any of the courses offered in the Change that Sticks Package. (Additional enrollments can be purchased for only $25 a month.)
- As team members are being equipped, bi-monthly meetings are scheduled with you and your team to help you keep building on our Five Keys to Successful Soul Care Ministry. One meeting will focus on development of your counseling ministry with those leading the ministry. A second meeting will focus on any questions your counseling team has in order to give them strategic guidance and resources for current cases.
