Faith Bible College — Short Course
Advanced Christian Counselling
A three-course journey equipping you to counsel with biblical wisdom — from the foundations of Christian counselling to life issues and youth ministry.
About This Programme
The Advanced Christian Counselling Short Course is a three-part, self-paced programme designed for pastors, church workers, youth leaders and anyone called to a ministry of care and healing. Each course builds on the previous one, beginning with the biblical and practical foundations of Christian counselling, progressing through life issues such as depression, substance abuse and family breakdown, and concluding with a focused study of children and youth counselling.
Each course is assessed through essay-style questions graded personally by your professor, ensuring thorough engagement with the material before you progress to the next level.
