(In-Person) Faithful Counseling 2026: Addressing Therapeutic Lies

This two-day conference will help believers think biblically about the mental health culture shaping today’s conversations around anxiety, depression, trauma, and identity.

Drawing from his ACBC Biblical Counseling Book of the Year - , Dr. Greg Gifford will examine the assumptions behind modern mental health approaches and contrast them with Scripture’s clear teaching on humanity, suffering, and transformation.

Rather than offering symptom management or borrowed therapeutic frameworks, biblical counseling calls people to renewed minds, changed hearts, and lasting hope through Christ.

This conference is designed for:

• Church members trying to understand their own struggles or the struggles of loved ones in a world saturated with therapeutic explanations

• Biblical counselors seeking clarity, conviction, and confidence when addressing diagnoses and therapeutic claims
• Pastors, small-group leaders, and disciplers walking alongside people who are suffering
  

Whether you are actively counseling or simply trying to discern how to think faithfully about mental health, this conference will equip you to respond with truth, compassion, and confidence in the sufficiency of Christ, His Word, and His Church.
