CALLED TO COUNSEL

April 27-29, 2023

Doxology Bible Church

Plenary Sessions

Esteeming God's Graces in Counseling

For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
