| 6/23/26 | Episode 76: Informal Counseling in the Local Church Part 2 (with Kari Gross, Kent Kloter, and Christi Thach) | Share your thoughts How do you counsel a fellow believer with Biblical clarity and Christ-like compassion when you aren't sitting in the counseling room? We talk a lot about formal counseling at BCM, but informal counseling is an indispensable element of the local church's design that offers a huge impact on a believer’s life and growth. In this episode, Kari sits down with two friends and fellow BCM teammates, Christi Thach and Kent Kloter, to continue a conversation from our last episode.... | 47m 20s | ||||||

Have you ever wondered what your role is as a small group leader? Is it to lead discussions about the latest sermons or to be hospitable and make sure there are good snacks? And just how does small groups intersect with SoulCare™? To help guide us through this discussion and provide wisdom is my guest, Scott Mehl.

| 11/11/25 | Episode 60: Why Pastors Resist Attending a Counseling Conference (with Jonathan Chadbourn) | Share your thoughts We are bringing you this conversation live from the ACBC Conference in Fort Worth, Texas. Each conference has been so encouraging and insightful; however, there is one thing I’ve noticed – not as many pastors are involved enough in their counseling ministry to attend a biblical counseling conference. Joining me to help answer the question, “Why aren’t more pastors coming or taking an active role in biblical counseling?” is a fellow pastor from Illinois. Jonathan Chadbourn... | 38m 38s | ||||||
| 10/28/25 | Episode 59: A Biblical Response to Dark Events (with Andrew Gerber) | Share your thoughts What do we do when dark events sweep across our nation and affect us close to home? How do we respond as pastors and leaders when current events affect our congregation so deeply? Often, when events like the assassination of Charlie Kirk occur, it can leave our sheep feeling confused, hurt, and looking for direction on how they should respond. Helping me wade into this discussion on how we should react when we come face-to-face with darkness is my friend, Andrew Ge... | 50m 02s | ||||||
| 10/14/25 | Episode 58: Can Anyone Be a “Biblical Counselor?” (with Joshua Greiner) | Share your thoughts The biblical counseling movement is ever-growing, and yet, not everyone who goes by the title of “biblical counselor” adheres to the same ideals and beliefs. There are those who claim to be biblical counselors but still turn to outside sources, additional therapies, and specialized training they feel is necessary to be able to adequately address what may come into the counseling room. However, is this man-centered wisdom really necessary to be able to counsel well? Should... | 42m 16s | ||||||
| 9/30/25 | Episode 57: Addressing Areas of Addiction (with Mark Shaw & Andrew Held) | Share your thoughts In the counseling room, you will come across a wide range of issues and problems that people are seeking counseling for.

If you missed our first episode with them, you’ll want to be sure to go back and listen to it here.

| 9/2/25 | Episode 55: Equipping Teens to Have a Biblical Worldview (with Henry Nightingale & Christian Martin) | Share your thoughts Many pastors and elders experience discouragement in counseling and even doubt they have the time, training, and resources to do it well. We firmly believe that people should be able to go to their church for help when they are faced with life problems. However, when it comes to the youth of our church or even the teens in our own household, it can be challenging to instill a strong faith that will withstand the opposing views they will encounter. For this conversation, I ... | 41m 20s | ||||||
| 8/19/25 | Episode 54: What Occurs in Intensive Counseling? (with Mark Schuitema) | Share your thoughts Where do you send your sheep to get outside help? Who can be trusted? It’s normal to feel nervous and wonder if the advice they receive will be biblically sound. In a past episode, we shared some behind-the-scenes of what intensive counseling was like from the perspective of the counselees and their advocate couple. Today, we are going to show you what it’s like from the counselor’s perspective. I have the privilege of welcoming Mark Schuitema. Mark is the Executiv... | 43m 16s | ||||||
| 8/5/25 | Episode 53: Championing a Biblical Counseling Ministry (with Brad Bigney) | Share your thoughts Does a thriving biblical counseling ministry really need to be championed by the lead pastor? What if they are too busy or have too much on their plate already? These are just some of the questions we are going to be tackling in this conversation. You might recognize the name of my guest for this conversation, as he’s been around the biblical counseling movement for a long time.
