Life is found
in connection

The brokenness of the world is real, but God entered our brokenness in the person of Christ. He then commanded us to do the same.

“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
John 13:34-35

Our passion is to help people connect 
to God and each other. 

We strive to do this in two ways.

Equipping Others to Overcome Life’s Challenges

We all struggle with obstacles and difficult situations in our lives, but we don’t always feel like we have the tools to get through them. Connection Point counselors are certified, biblically-trained, and wholly committed to helping clients overcome any personal and/or interpersonal challenges they may be facing. We offer virtual or in-person counseling to best meet the needs of each client. Not sure if biblical counseling is right for you?

Equipping Others for
Kingdom Work

Connection Point also has a heart for “equipping the equippers.” As such, we offer training for the aspiring biblical counselor that leads to certification through ABC. We also offer intermediate to advanced training for seasoned biblical counselors who are looking to further develop their skills. Whether you’re wanting to counsel a friend through hard times or are looking for more extensive training in the context of ministry, we help believers develop the skill set to counsel and support others as a conduit of Christ’s love and compassion.

How We Operate

Nonprofit

Connection Point Biblical Counseling and Training Center is a 501c3 nonprofit, donation-supported ministry committed to providing Christ-centered biblical counseling and training to individuals, families, and churches. We are supported in three ways: counseling, training, and donations.

We offer biblical counseling and training, including professional development, and CE credits for ABC. Our counselors and partners regularly prepare courses to foster growth in the Word for individuals, and for those who are called to counsel. Community Membership includes access to all our non-certification courses at your disposal.

Our courses are focused on four key areas of growth based on Luke 2:52.

Our courses are focused on four key areas of growth based on Luke 2:52 - WISDOM, PHYSICAL HEALTH, SPIRITUAL GROWTH, and RELATIONAL SKILLS.

Giving and Support

We have the privilege to partner with trusted leaders and local churches overseas to support disciple-making, biblical counseling training, and church-based ministry initiatives. Through these partnerships, we come alongside missionaries, church planters, and indigenous leaders—encouraging, equipping, and resourcing them as they serve their own communities with the hope of Christ. We even have counselors of our own serving overseas alongside our partners in missionary work around the world.

If you would like to be a part of our international projects, you can give directly to our initiatives through our designated giving fund. Your donation helps provide training materials, ministry support, counseling sessions, and practical resources that strengthen the local church and advance gospel-centered care around the world.

We are passionate about knowing and loving people well, using the story of Scripture in personal and meaningful ways.

We want to know you well before we offer any help.

Lay Counselors

Connection Point is happy to partner with Shadowbrook Church to offer counseling from lay counselors who have been trained in biblical counseling. These counselors have significant life experience and/or formal training, but are new to formal counseling. We are excited to welcome them to our team! Our lay counselors are closely supervised, so their clients get the added benefit of extra attention from their supervisor. During their training, their rate is reduced to $60 per 55-minute session. (No additional discounts apply.) We hope you will meet them soon.
