This website offers free downloadable and reproducible resources for biblical counselors.
Your site is one of the best I’ve come across for training biblical counselors. What a gift to the body of Christ. Thank you, Nanette! For the glory of God!

The Problem:
There are far more people with problems than there are Christians who are equipped to help them biblically. Therefore, I want to be instrumental in helping to raise up more biblical counselors who are equipped to counsel using the Scriptures. That’s what this website is all about.
The Solution:
“All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.”
(2 Tim 3:16-17 NLT)
“I myself am convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, complete in knowledge and competent to instruct one another.” (Rom 15:14 NIV)
“We urge you brethren, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone.”
(I Thess 5:14 NASB)
Dear sister
Stephanie, France
I just “stumbled” on your website. I am so grateful to The Lord for this. I’m a french sister, living in France and there are so few resources here for sound biblical counseling. Currently, I am passing my exams in biblical counseling with IBCD ( institute of biblical counseling) online. Please, will you consider helping me? From where to start? Thank you from heart for all that you have done for the Body. May the grace of God, be to you, your family and church in Jesus Name.
My name is Nanette Loveless. I’m an ACBC certified biblical counselor. I have earned my MABC from The Master’s University in Santa Clarita, CA. In order to complete that degree I wrote the thesis that prompted this website: “A Beginning Counselor’s Toolkit.” This “toolkit” is a compilation of that which I have learned and resources that I have gained from as well as resources that I have developed in my years of biblical counseling.
I first learned that the Bible has the answers to help me face any difficulty that might come my way when I was met with an insurmountable set of trials in the 1990’s. As I shared with others facing similar problems the things that I was learning from the Bible, I was actually doing “biblical counseling” without even knowing that such a thing existed. As time went on, I discovered this thing called “biblical counseling”.
The more I changed, the more passionate I became about helping others find God’s peace and purpose in the midst of adversity. This passion prompted me to dive more deeply into God’s Word as well as biblical counseling books and training events. As a result, what I have learned has prompted more passion and urgency to help equip more soldiers in this growing army of biblical counselors.
Hallo Nanette, I sincerely hope and pray you’re well in Christ Jesus. I am pushing on with the gospel-centered care ministry. We just got registered as an association of Christian counsellors (offering exclusive discipleship counselling) in our country. Biblical counseling is a very new phenomenon in Kenya, even pastors train in secular psychology to deal with faithfuls’ issues in the church. I really thank God that your resources have been so empowering. I request whether you could grant me permission to use your resources to formulate online short cources for spiritual leaders in our society, kindly. Best Regards!

I have recently come across your Biblical Counseling resource and am reading through it. I have found it to be very helpful as a beginning BC. What you have created has helped me get a much firmer grasp on all that I have learned. It has provided me a framework within which to minister. I have learned and grown so much over the last several years. You have provided me with many tools to help put what I have learned into practice. So bless you!
