Most people are carrying some kind of hurt or pain they're seeking to heal. Many of them turn to the church for help, and many find their way to a counselor's office. Either way, they're looking for someone who knows how to help them.
What if you had a framework for knowing when, how, and who to help?
We watch the news and see person after person in visible crisis. The need in our culture is enormous, and people are hurting on a level that feels unprecedented — anxiety, depression, mental illness, panic attacks, strained family relationships, hopelessness, grief, insecurity, self-doubt, and more.
As pastors, counselors, and ministry leaders, the need is great and it can be hard to see everyone, evaluate everyone, and provide the level of care each person deserves. It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the need coming to your door.
Bestselling author and researcher Shaunti Feldhahn conducted national research with more than 2,000 church leaders on this very subject. With research-backed solutions, she equips pastors, staff, counselors, and lay leaders with practical tools to walk alongside those who are hurting.
Imagine having the encouragement, vision, and tools to not only know where to send people, but WHEN to send them elsewhere - and HOW to support them well.
Not every bump in the road requires professional help and not every wound requires the same kind of care. Church leaders and counselors each carry a piece of this - and when those pieces work together, the whole community benefits.
Shaunti will join us in person to talk about how to meet people's needs and
grow your capacity to help - by being present, equipped, and willing.
