I want to grow in biblical counseling for personal enrichment.
I have an existing ACBC education and would like to see my options for continuing my studies.
I'm not ready to join yet but want to stay informed for a future season (Join the waitlist)
Are you committed to the sufficiency of the Bible for counseling? Yes, I’ve read through the site and clearly understand the mission and vision.
Yes, I’ve looked through it, but I still have some questions.
Not yet, but I plan to explore it soon.

If you chose Other, please indicate here:
How important is it that your training aligns with your pastor’s theology or your church’s doctrine? Very important — I want training that reflects our church’s values
Somewhat — I’d prefer it to be aligned, but it’s not a deal breaker
Not important — I’m open to any sound biblical curriculum
What is Your Church's Tradition (Calvary Chapel-Friendly, Baptist-Friendly, Presbyterian-Friendly, Non-Denominational, etc.)
Have you discussed this training path with your pastor or church leadership? Yes, and they are supportive
Not yet, but I plan to
No, this is a personal decision for now
How do you prefer to learn? I enjoy figuring things out myself — I’m okay searching YouTube or Google for answers
I do best with a clear, step-by-step curriculum and a support team available to help
I like a bit of both — some structure with freedom to explore
How important is it to you to have a dedicated team to answer your questions during training? Very important — I want someone walking with me
Somewhat important — only when I get stuck
Not important — I prefer independence
What kind of training experience are you looking for? DIY — low cost, no-frills, I’ll figure it out myself
Blended — structured and supported, without breaking the bank
VIP — best of the best: customized success path, rapid results, personal guidance
When would you like to finish certification? As quickly as possible (12–18 months)
Within 2–3 years
No rush — I’m focused on long-term growth
Which best describes your budget mindset? I’m looking for the lowest cost, even if it means DIY learning
I’m open to monthly payments for a better experience
I want the highest quality, and I’m willing to invest in full tuition for the best outcome
Is funding for this biblical counseling training available to you at this time? Yes, I’m financially prepared
Not right now, but I’m planning for it
I'm not sure yet
Would you be open to your pastor helping with the tuition cost or offering church support? Yes — I’d love that
Possibly — I’ll ask
No — I’ll be covering this myself
Are you prepared to set aside time for the reading and teaching required in this training? Yes, I’m ready to commit fully to the reading and lectures.
Not yet, but I’m prayerfully considering how to make it work.
I’m unsure—I'd like to learn more about the time commitment.
What would help you feel confident about starting your training?
We’d love to get to know you better—Anything else you’d like us to know about your background, goals, or hopes?
