The ICLC is formatted as an annual 3-day training event, designed to equip those with a heart for biblical counseling with the tools to effectively lead hurting and defeated people from plaguing bondage to spiritual victory. The ICLC is designed to be both academically intensive and purposefully practical. Every annual ICLC training module features a different counseling theme to provide a well-rounded exposure to how to navigate a variety of crises.
Many believers are plagued by past wounds, secret guilt, nagging shame, and paralyzing fear, finding themselves vulnerable to addictive behaviors, chronic health issues, and suicidal thoughts. The need of the hour is learning how to effectively lead others beyond behavior modification, new coping mechanisms, acceptance-driven performance, and religious compensation, to lasting change that is found in a vibrant relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Whether you are a pastor, Bible study leader, missionary, parent, or mentor, your role as a disciple maker is so vital to leading people to victory in Christ. This training module is designed to provide you with a framework for helping people to find genuine freedom and healing from the spiritual chains of lust, bitterness, indulgence, rejection, obsession, and deception that bind them and to effectively point them to Jesus as their Hope through a personal exchange of human inadequacy for divine enablement.
