SCRIPTURE THERAPY® COLLEGE & SEMINARY
COLLEGE & SEMINARY
We are continually working to make Scripture Therapy® College & Seminary (STC&S) available to everyone whether you want to learn Scripture Therapy® for your own growth and progress, or increase your skills, knowledge, abilities, wisdom, understanding, and character to help others.
CHRISTIAN COUNSELING AND SCRIPTURE THERAPY®
The word ‘counseling’ brings up a variety of images for most people. We encourage you to put all those to the side because we use a very non-traditional approach.
Christian Counseling and Scripture Therapy® involves gently and quickly addressing the needs individuals face today. There is no need to spend hours laying on a couch discussing the past. While we do not invalidate anyone’s past, we know that you are free today to make the choices that will meet your needs, right now.
This is exciting for everyone! We used the guidance of the Holy Spirit (God’s voice speaking to us), and the principles and applications of Choice Theory psychology to meet you where you are, discover what you need, and support you as you chart a path for the life you want.
Most people are empowered to direct their life in ten sessions or less. This is the natural time frame for learning and putting into practice Scripture Therapy®.
We are called by God as teachers and counselors, ordained with His power to use the benefit of personal trials and excellent training to encourage people to self-counsel, and then counsel others.
Options for counseling included one-on-one sessions, groups, workshops, and conferences. Contact us to learn how we can partner with you to provide Christian Counseling and Scripture Therapy®.

Course Catalogue
Ministry counseling and coaching are used simultaneously in STC&S education and training, recognizing that the term means different things to different people, culture, and professions. However, STC&S does provide “counseling/coaching materials” that have proved to be effective and result-oriented in counseling/coaching sessions and may be used by professional and nonprofessional individuals.
STC&S is not intended to provide a dictate of how you are to administer operations. It is not an all-inclusive manual but rather a guide to help you administer effective and efficient counseling and operations, as God desires.
