Episode 25: Using the Biblical Discipleship Approach (with Mike Hanson)

Soul Care Culture: Developing a Church-Wide Culture of Biblical Soul Care

We are switching things up this episode and I have the privilege of being in the hot seat to talk about another one of our biblical counseling tools. Kari Gross has graciously agreed to take on the role of interviewer as we discuss the tool of the biblical discipleship approach.
The biblical discipleship approach (BDA) is how we first approach a counseling situation. It helps us answer questions like what the best way to care for this person is, and if it is necessary for them to be counseled by you, dear pastor, or if there is another connection in their life that could take on the counseling role. This is such a rich framework to be sure that your schedule isn’t getting overwhelmed with counseling appointments and that the biblical counseling ministry is not dependent on any one individual.
In this episode, we’ll cover the problems that dictated the need for this tool, how to determine what the best care team is for each situation, why it is important for pastors to master the trust transfer, and much more.
Listen in!
