Equipping ministers to effectively walk with anxious people

To minister to the Christian today is to minister to deep anxiety. Christians are living busier, more distracted lives that require constant choices and involve many pressures. Redeemer Counseling Services is offering a workshop for pastors and ministry leaders to address the topic of anxiety and how to help people grow through their anxiety, as well as how to handle it.

Examining the heart and soul to find the problem is often a deep source of encouragement to anxious people, but the nature of anxiety is also bound up and perpetuated in the body. Therefore, without a proper awareness and understanding of anxiety and how it works in people’s bodies and minds, it is often difficult to get people to “just stop worrying” or to “just trust God.” This training workshop will help participants:

• Understand how anxiety works in the body and interacts with the mind

• Learn effective strategies to help anxious people and know when to refer

• Gain insight into faith and heart issues that intersect with anxiety

• Practice body-based techniques to help reduce anxiety

• Offer the grace and truth of the gospel in the midst of anxiety
