Schedule
At the root of every human struggle, conflict, and anxiety lies a question of worship: What does the heart most deeply desire? In biblical counseling, moving past behavior modification means learning to address these deep “root” motivations that drive our outward “fruit”.
This conference will equip pastors, leaders, and counselors to trace The Human Heart: A Wellspring of Worship through the grand arc of Scripture. By understanding how the heart was designed in Creation, broken in the Fall, transformed through Redemption, and will be ultimately cured in Restoration, you will gain a profound framework for personal holiness and a deeper, more compassionate skill set to counsel others with the life-changing power of the Word of God.
ABC will be offering specialized tracks taught by leading practitioners in the field from which attendees may choose that will include eight insightful sessions on the following topics:
Track A – Mental Health: Biblically Unpacking Diagnoses
Track B – Hermeneutics in Biblical Counseling
Track C – Fundamentals of Biblical Counseling Methods
Track D – Practical Theology in Biblical Counseling
Track E – Counseling through James
Track F - Pastors & Church Leadership
Track G – Abuse
Track H – Understanding Emotions: Anxiety, Depression & Suicide
