As 2019 comes to a close, I want to say “Thank You” for your continued interest in the Institute for Pastoral Care. Here are some things that your investments help make possible.

New Workbook for Unstuck: A Nine Step Journey to Change that Lasts

Response to my latest book, Unstuck: A Nine-Step Journey to Change That Lasts has been encouraging. The feedback led me to develop a companion workbook. It will give individuals and small groups the opportunity to work through each chapter of Unstuck as they focus on an area in their lives. This will be a free downloadable product from the web. When it is available, it will be announced in e-news. If you want to be the first to know, sign up for e-news here.

Travel and Teaching Opportunities

These speaking events are always encouraging as I watch people find help in the moment. Here are just a few from 2019:

  • Gainesville, Florida: Marriage

  • Leyland, England: Addictions and Anger

  • Birmingham, England: Addictions and Anger

  • Montreal, Canada: Marriage

  • Suffolk, VA: Redeeming Sexuality

Seminars Available Online

This year, I was able to provide many of my seminars through an online teaching platform. There are currently 14 audio or video seminars with PDF PowerPoint downloads. You can find them here.

Counseling and Consultations

As was the case in 2018, counseling and consulting hours have increased. I continue to work with leaders, individuals and couples both nationally and internationally.

Thank You for Your Prayer and Support

I am grateful to have people who are praying for the work of the Institute, as well as those who invest in what we do. Would you consider becoming a monthly donor? You can do that online through the donation page. You can make a one time tax deductible donation or set up a recurring donation.

Thank you for your consideration and prayers.
