Recommended: The importance of counseling as a profession

There are many reason to be a Christian Counselor. The reason I want to be a Christian counselor is to serve God's people. When I enrolled here at Faulkner University, my sole intent was to receive my bachelor degrees in business administration. I wanted my degree to start my own business and know how to run a business. After a few months of attending here at Faulkner University, I start having a feeling in my inner spirit that God had me here at Faulkner for another reason. There is a saying "if you want God to laugh tell God your plan". Well I guess I made God laugh because God changed the plans or started revealing the plan he already predestined.

In order to lead, you have to know how to serve others. Our purpose is to serve and being a servant for God. When you are living on purpose, you love the service or work you are providing and it is a desire in your heart to carry out your duties for God. Not only is your purpose benefiting God' people but it is also beneficial for you as well. It fills you with joy just to know you doing God's work and taking you to a higher realm in Christ. God reveals more to you so you can continue to grow spiritually. You never stop learning in Christ. We have a mission statement at the church I attend True Divine Baptist Church. The statement: Producing Believers Who Excel In Life. I am a true believer of that statement. I want to produce believers who excel in life because I be excelled in from my pastor's leadership and sermons. I want others to excel in life from counseling so they can live on purpose. As I have stated before I want to become a counselor to serve God's people and do the work God has purpose me to do. I want to ensure individual and families that God want us to live a life of abundance and a blessed filled life in Christ. Teaching them how to use

    Throughout reading Caring for People God Way, Chapter 1, I began to ponder the question why do people chose to come to Christin counseling? If a person thinks about it, just because a person wants to attend Christian counseling does not mean, they are Christian person or they believe in Christ. A person may have to console and induvial who has problem does not go to church.

    Abstract Christian counseling and treatment that may focus on sexuality can be challenging for not only the client but the counselor. As a counselor, the American Counseling Association (ACA) outlines that it is considered unethical to refuse treatment to a client who is different than you and may not share the same views as yours and that refusing treatment can be considered discrimination. Counselors are encouraged to embrace diversity in all aspects and express empathy as well as endorse social justice. But, what if you are a practicing Christian counselor?

    Whether if it is serving as a pastor, missionary or in any other Christian field, a common thing that they are all called to do is minister to the needs of others, both inside and outside of the church. If their focus is on the world and the temporal issues of it, then the opportunity to serve others and bring them to God’s glory is missed. Believers ministering to the lives of those around them, with their minds focused on the eternal issues like bringing others to salvation, may be the only sense of church someone may have in their lives. Believers are called to live outside of the world but also to live in it as lights to the darkness, lights that bring glory to God and people to believe in His call for their lives so that they can live a life according to His plan for them as well. It is the duty of the church to, in the midst of their specific callings, minister to the needs of others in their communities in hopes it will bring the people around them to God’s kingdom and promise for everlasting life and seek salvation through

Next, Commissioned Lay Counseling assists in leading individuals to view life issues from a Christ-centered perspective. Lastly, Coaching consists of leading individuals to have a different view on past negative life experiences. Functioning in all three capacities has shown me the need others have for understanding and coping with difficult issues and has also shaped my desire to further my education and better equip myself with the knowledge needed to help the hurting and the lost.
