CO101 Introducing Pastoral Counseling I: Theory and Practice is unavailable, but you can change that!

In this introduction, Dr. Eric Johnson identifies the seven pillars of pastoral counseling, essential skills needed, and issues of human development. He emphasizes the biblical view of God and human nature so you can care for others in a way that expresses Christ’s love. This course is beneficial for anyone involved in Christian counseling.

The original Hebrew word, kabod, has this root meaning of “weight” or “significance.” I like to think of the kind of metaphor that that casts as the idea of “meaningful.” God is the most meaningful being imaginable; He’s all meaning and all significance. He is the weightiest being imaginable. So when we think about God’s glory, we want to think about God’s meaningfulness.
