Abstract

Biblical counseling is a growing need in the modern church. Through my service at Beulah Baptist Church in Bennett, North Carolina, the staff and leaders had noticed an increasing need for help and accountability from Scripture. The way Beulah has chosen to view biblical counseling is an extension of discipleship; the leadership of Beulah feels this is one way to fulfill the Great Commission. The purpose of this project was to effectively equip lay leaders at Beulah Baptist Church with foundational biblical counseling competencies. The project model I chose was the equipping model. During this project, I analyzed and researched various foundational biblical counseling competencies to determine their core components. After discovering these foundational competencies, I wrote a curriculum to be taught in a three-day workshop format. I held a three-day workshop to equip these lay leaders. The aim was to understand our limits and teach lay leaders when there is an issue that exceeds their knowledge base. Once this has been established, we will refer you to a licensed Christian counseling center in our area. Theology played a vital part in this project, as the sessions focused on salvation and progressive sanctification in explaining more profound biblical theology so that they could direct people to God.
