Training & Certification

ACBC provides training to equip Christians to minister God’s Word faithfully to those in their lives.

Why is Training Important?

Many Christians feel they aren’t equipped to counsel. Yet, when our brothers and sisters in Christ encounter trials, suffering, and sin, we are called to help them “grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,” by speaking the truth in love.
