\nBuilding up biblical counselors around the world through training & resources\n<\/h1>
\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n
\nIn 2 Timothy 2:2, Paul instructs church leaders to entrust what they\u2019ve learned to faithful people who can teach others in turn. That instruction is at the heart of BCMW\u2019s work. We connect with churches around the world and then send teachers to train their pastors and leaders in biblical counseling. Our partners provide the room, the board, and the students; we provide the curriculum and the teacher. Once a region commits to training, the curriculum gets translated into the local language and is adapted by local pastors who understand the culture.

Our ultimate goal is to leave behind churches that are equipped to train their own counselors indefinitely, sustained by their own community long after BCMW\u2019s part in the work is finished.\n<\/div>

\nA SMALL TEAM WITH A GLOBAL REACH\n<\/h2>
\nBiblical Counseling Ministries Worldwide (BCMW) operates as a small executive team supporting a global network of coordinators, teachers, and missionary counselors. A handful of staff manage strategy, finances, and communications from a home base in California, while the actual training happens almost entirely overseas, led by country coordinators who know the region.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

\nOur leadership\n<\/h3>
\nDr. Andrew Rogers serves as BCMW's Executive Director, leading the ministry Wayne and Susie Vanderwier founded in 2006 after two decades pastoring a single congregation through biblical counseling. Andrew spent years assisting with Church Leadership Training modules and teaching graduate courses before stepping into this role in 2019. The full leadership team, including BCMW's Board of Trustees, is introduced on our Leadership page.\n<\/div>

\nOur location\n<\/h3>
\nBCMW is headquartered in Walnut Creek, California, where a small staff handles administration, finances, and communication. The actual ministry reaches far beyond that office, into dozens of countries where coordinators live, teach, and counsel in their own communities and across the globe. Wherever a partner church is willing to host training, BCMW sends a teacher to meet them there.\n<\/div>

\nWhat we believe is at the heart of everything we do.\n<\/h1>
\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n
\nOur passion for the work of Biblical counseling training is grounded in our beliefs about the sufficiency of Scripture, the nature of sin, the purpose of the church, and the work of Christ in salvation and sanctification.\n<\/div>
