The Certificate of Pastoral Care training focuses on learning how to share the wholeness of Christ through pastoral care and biblical counselling. It is ideal for those who are seeking to help others and be a good prayerful ear.
The Certificate of Pastoral Care is a biblical approach to caring for people in the community, local church or ministry context. In addition, you will learn when to refer people in your care to professional counsellors or more experienced pastors.
This course will equip individuals to care for people pastorally, providing them with tools and teaching them to work within good pastoral care systems.

Le pasteur doit aider les gens à recadrer leur vie à la lumière de l’histoire de Dieu
Am a beneficial in this course
I always loved these knowledge and course since i joined them. It upgraded my skills to resolve crisis and to give counseling. Thank you Jesus for Axx.
This lesson reminds me why Jesus asked Peter three times, “Peter do you love me more than others. After Peter’s answer, Jesus’ reason of asking that question is the same today, “look after my sheep”. I was just challenged by this pastoral care session. Jesus asked Peter the relationship first between themselves, this session taught me to take care of myself first so that I may take care of the church of God.
This course trained me to understand the need of caring for God’s people. Not only within the church but also in the community. Identifying their needs and working out a way of meeting these needs. It is important to know your flock so you can care for them better
Counselling Basics: Part 1 is an introduction to the skills and knowledge required to establish and apply a biblical Christian counselling approach. We also discuss mental illness and depression in relation to understanding and renewing the mind.
Prior to Bible teaching, Grant served as a full-time pastor and school chaplain. Although a lecturer in theology and biblical studies with a focus on Pauline theology and the Gospels, Grant also operates as a professional counsellor and is working towards the completion of this Doctor of Philosophy by exploring a pneumatological reading of Galatians in light of 6:15 and the impact this has on Christian identify.
This topic makes me understand that conflict can be managed by having an open heart and regularly communicating, expressing emotions, understanding defence, remaining connected or accepting, being active, being respectful among others.
This course has been so valuable to me.
Thanks Axx for making this clear. I was not sure before how to deal with people exactly but after this teachings it’s all clear.

Counselling is about to bring changes in one’s life.
Pastoral counselling Facilitate growth and deliverance.
In counselling a counsellor is not there to fix a client, but to direct a client to find solutions to his/her problems. When people are coming for counselling we must not assume that we know why they are there without listening to their stories that they are presenting.
A church must be a place of healing, forgiveness,acceptance, encouragement and support to assist people to heal quickly.
Counselling theories were developed to help the people according to their mental issues that they are presenting until today we are using them. It is very important to know which theory i can use to this problem.
Counselling techniques are there to give hope.
Counsellor’s must led by the Holy Spirit in order to assist people out of self-love.
Confidentiality is very important in counselling, it gives the counsellee the freedom of expression without fear.
in order to provide effective counselling active listening must be available for the counsellor not to miss any point that the client mentions. Counsellor must avoid the barriers of communication by making sure there is no distraction in the counselling room. Listening and looking for non-verbal communication is very important.
Client safety is very important, its the duty of the counsellor to make sure that there is no danger in the counselling room.
It is important to deal with our emotions.
Counselling Basics: Part 2 discusses the theology of emotions & the emotions that are encountered, including; anger, anxiety, grief & loss, guilt & shame and conflict. Then we evaluate the Christian responses of forgiveness, inner healing and prayer and pastoral counselling.

I have realized that the following are important in inner healing and pastoral counselling:
1.Spirit – helps in restoring a crushed or wounded spirit
2.Body-helps in healing sickness and disease
3.Soul-helps in healing of emotions
All these contributes to pastoral counselling.
This course has inspired me to study more
