CONVERSATIONAL COUNSELING PODCAST
where counseling and discipleship meet
After decades of having these conversations in the counseling room and side by side over coffee with friends, we were compelled this year to create a podcast resource to inspire, equip, and train you to use your everyday conversations to connect others to the love of Christ.
Because we learn better together, we want to encourage you to gather and discuss the podcast. Simply sign up for our emails to receive conversation starting questions, visuals, and handouts for each episode.
