Abundant Life Christian Counseling Services partners with students, graduates, existing counseling centers, and those wishing to establish counseling ministries in their area as a, "Networking Missionary Center."

                  This revolutionary relationship will be offered to the director of the center or pastor-counselor for greater effectiveness for the kingdom of God.

The director or pastoral counselor will see results in the following way:

 

  • Free Forms - there are many forms to be efficient and effective in a counseling ministry. We've developed, proven and guarantee each form. All forms are used in our office daily. This one feature alone is worth thousands of dollars. To pay for research and development of each form as well as an attorney to verify each form for legality purposes would cost thousands of dollars.

 

  • On-Going Support and Encouragement - Counseling ministry can be lonely and discouraging at times. In some areas, there is only one counseling ministry or none at all. Friendship or networking is often very little or nonexistent. A "Networking Missionary Center" will have easy access to others for on-going support, encouragement, wisdom from God's Word, and most importantly prayer. The Apostle Paul received encouragement from Silas.

 

  • Free Legal Updates - We seek and receive legal advice from a former (now retired) state of Tennessee attorney. This highly competent attorney has been advising Abundant Life since 2006. The director or pastor will receive free updates as we receive them. This one feature, also, will save thousands of dollars.

 

  • On-Going Training - A counseling ministry is a complex field that is constantly changing as people and their needs change. We offer proven training in the latest techniques, principles, and truths for improved effectiveness. As a pioneering counseling ministry and a teaching counseling ministry, we strive for excellence in research, development, and application. You will not find any superior training.

 

  • Name Recognition and Linking Sites - We have been in existence since 1991. There have been many lives, marriages, etc. miraculously healed and set free through God's power. Moreover, God has blessed us with a great reputation and standing in the area of pioneering Christian counseling. As a "Networking Missionary Center," the director or pastor counselor will be given an opportunity to link sites for maximum effectiveness.
