About the Training
Michigan Biblical Counseling is a regional biblical counseling and discipleship training ministry hosted by Berean Baptist Church of Portage, MI, built to equip pastors, counselors, and lay leaders from churches across Southwest Michigan.
Rather than bringing in an outside ministry to run a one-time event, the training is taught locally, across multiple sessions, by pastors who counsel in their own churches.
Our conviction: Scripture is sufficient for the problems people bring to counseling — not just one helpful voice among several.
This training grew out of a coalition of area churches who wanted more thorough, ongoing training than a single turnkey conference weekend can offer. Our teaching follows the public positions of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC).
