BC&D-1: What is the definition of Biblical Counseling John Barnett
What is the definition of Biblical Counseling (Romans 15:4-6, 13-14)?
4 For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. 5 Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, 6 that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
• “teaching” (didasko) part of our great commission task to be “teaching” all true disciples of Christ (Mt. 28:20).
• “patience” (hupomeno) this word means “stays in place, abides”; God is described as being faithful and unchangingly staying in place. This also describes the Word (I Pet. 1:23) and in I Cor. 13:13 ‘faith, hope, and love’. This is also the great word of Psalm 27:14; Isaiah 40:31.
• “comfort” (paraklesis): means comfort that comes through God's Word that is based upon the faithful God we can and do trust. God is the God of patience and comfort, and He alone through His Word can comfort the downcast (II Cor. 7:6).
13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. 14 Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
• “The God of hope” is the source of hope we offer as Disciple-making/Counselors (v. 13a);
• His Holy Spirit energizes this hope by “the power of the Holy Spirit” (v. 13b);
• All Counseling/Disciple-makers need to be “full” of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22);
• Only by the Spirit are we “able” (v. 14a) this word (dunamai) means power or ability, it is passive, so that means ‘made able by another’, or ‘enabled’;
• All believers have been left with the job description (I Th. 5:14) to be Biblical Counselors “admonish one another” (noutheteo). This word means ‘impart understanding’, ‘set right’, or ‘lay upon the heart’. Paul said this is what his ministry was 24/7 (Acts 20:31).

Reformation always causes the blessings of God to be released in a greater way.
Without reformation, the Church becomes stagnant and eventually loses the full blessing of God.
Through reformation, multitudes are blessed and released into their individual destinies.
The Church also begins to walk in corporate destiny and release salvation and blessing to multitudes.
Transition is sometimes difficult because it requires humility and a willingness to make sacrifices.
There will be a grace given by the Lord to make the change.
An overview in missions and how you can get involved and prepared to serve and do the thing that is uniquely Christian, going out and serving others with your talent and love.
Truth and lies are much bigger than we usually think. We live surrounded by the lie and we lose our hope and our belief. Jesus is the "truth" in that he dispels the lie.
We circle the verse John 3:16 to discover it's meaning in context with the chapter. In the process we reveal an important lesson for Nicodemus and us about belief.
We overload our minds with so much information. Our rate of communication goes up, and the quality of our communication goes down. We are in danger of losing ourselves.
Looks into the life of King Nebuchadnezzar and what he contributed through writing to the bible. We take a look at his dream about the tree and how turning our eyes to heaven shows us the power of the God of the Now. Goes with the Rob Bell Video entitled "Trees"
The bible is full of landscapes and scenery, each as important to the story as the characters. What can these landscapes tell us about our lives and what we need to do to seek God in the place we are?
The story of Esther, set to the music of "Queen". Be sure to use a playlist with the following songs:
• Princes of the Universe
• Killer Queen
• Somebody to Love
• Crazy Little Thing Called Love
• Keep Yourself Alive
• I Want It All
• Save Me
• Hammer To Fall
• We Will Rock You
• We Are The Champions
• Bohemian Rhapsody
God's word contains Psalms, poetry and song written by man to God. It's a love letter and we wait and listen. We are a song. We are the worship. We are the praise. Watch the Nooma video "Rhythm" with Rob Bell.
When we hear the phrase "Life After Death", we mediately get the idea of a cosmic heaven. What if Jesus was impressing on us the cycle of life and death and the power of an eternal creation?

Renewed in Grace
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

2. Prayer Ministry Training When it comes to praying for other people there is no substitute for experience. This teaching is meant to offer sound methods to help you get started on a solid foundation. We understand there are many ways of praying and ministering to people but if you follow these methods your experience will be positive and beneficial to all.
3. Ministry Team Objective There are two main objectives. Love those you minister to! 1 Cor 13:1-2 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. Become a channel for the Holy Spirit to minister to the person! John 7:38-39 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." 39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
4. Being a Ministry Team Member In accordance with the objectives, a team member will try to accomplish the following. Facilitate the moving of the Holy Spirit under the direction of the Pastor or other appointed leadership. Help to avoid confusion, offense or harm. Release God’s love, healing, encouragement and deliverance to those who indicate a desire for prayer. Edify, exhort and comfort.
5. Ministry Team Purpose It is not the purpose of the ministry team to rebuke, correct or give direction to those you are praying for! It is not the purpose of the ministry team to provide counseling or any other in-depth ministry!
6. Ministry Team Qualifications There are some things we will later discuss but the preliminary qualifications are as follows. A ministry team member must be born again! ( John 3:3 Rom 6:23 ) A ministry Team member must regularly attend and support a local congregation! Heb 10:24-25 And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.
7. Desirable Qualities of a Ministry Team Member We all know that none of us are perfect but with the help of the Lord we should all endeavor to grow in qualities that demonstrate the character of Jesus. Matt 5:48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect. Some of the qualities we are referring to are: Humility.(Proverbs 3:34,James 4:6,1Peter 5:5 Obedience. ( John 14:23, 15:10 ) Freedom from desire of recognition.
8. Additional Qualities Faithfulness. ( 1 Timothy 1:12-14 ) Endurance. ( willingness to stay until all ministry is complete ) Willingness to receive correction from leadership. Willingness to receive ministry from others yourself.
9. Lifestyle Characteristics that help improve Ministry Spend time daily with the Lord in praise and worship. Spend time reading and studying the scriptures. Walking in forgiveness as a lifestyle. ( Matt. 6:14,18:2122,2Cor2:10) Walking in repentance as a lifestyle. ( Matt. 3:3, Luke13:3, Rev. 3:19)
10. More Characteristics that help you minister Be re-filled with the Holy Spirit continually. ( Acts.4:31, Eph5:18) Growing in the fruit of the Spirit. (Gal.5:22) Be free from panic, fear and worry. ( 2Tim 1:7, Phil 4:6-7 ) Be a person of prayer. ( Eph. 6:18) Your daily walk and character as an individual is more important tha what you do in ministry!
11. Ministry Team Protocol Catchers: Catching is an important part of prayer ministry at the altar. It allows people to freely receive and rest in the anointing without the fear of getting hurt. It also helps to keep the ministry time “decent and in order”. ( 1Cor. 14:40)
12. Catching Keep your elbows close to your sides and place your hands near the small of the person’s back, gently touch the person’s back or shoulder. Have one foot slightly ahead of the other so you are balanced. As the person falls back move back with them allowing your hands to slide up their back. This allows you to cushion their fall without taking all the weight on you
13. Catching Keep alert and be careful, be sure there is ample space on the floor for the person! Be aware of what is happening around you! Request assistance if the person’s size or weight is more than you can handle! Watch and be aware as people begin to sway under the anointing, even those who may not yet been prayed for.
14. Catching Periodically gently touch the person you are catching in the middle of the back so they know you are still there to help them. Pay attention so you are right there when you are needed to assist in ministry. When available, try to keep the person’s exposed areas covered such as legs above the knees and midriffs
15. Things to Avoid While Catching Pushing or pulling anyone over. Holding anyone up by grabbing the shoulders or upper back. Rubbing or touching in ways that might be annoying or misconstrued.
16. Same Gender Prayer When it possible Women will minister to Women and Men to Men. In any event, do not minister alone to someone of the opposite sex. It is best to have at least one person of the same sex as the one you are ministering to praying with you as a team!
17. Laying-on of hands The appropriate places to lay hands on someone for general prayer are the forehead and hands. Apply as a soft touch and be careful not to offend anyone. When praying for healing you may lay your hand on the affected area if it is not a sensitive one. Always be respectful of the people you are ministering to and careful not to accidently or otherwise touch them in an inappropriate place.
18. Hygiene Ministry at the altar requires people to be willing to come closer and be touched more than in than usual. The proper hygiene of the ministry team helps make their experience a little more inviting! Be clean and neat Use deodorant Have plenty of breath mints available
19. Reverence Always talk quietly in the ministry area. When you are done praying, be aware that non-prayer fellowship and conversation may distract those who may still be receiving ministry. Music being played during ministry time should be quiet and worshipful. When you are not personally engaged in ministering you can stand back and pray for those in the team who are ministering.
20. Ministry Team Prayer Needs Pray daily for yourself and the prayer team as the Holy Spirit prompts you. Some things you can pray for include those on the list provided to you! James 5:16-17 The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
