The Value of Training in Biblical Counseling
By Brad Brandt
Thirty-three years ago, the Lord privileged me to become the pastor of Wheelersburg Baptist Church, in Appalachian southern Ohio, where I presently serve. At the time, the church was 109 years old.

I was committed to preaching it, making disciples by it, and equipping this precious congregation to live by it.
