The phrase 180° communicates a change in direction – a complete, intentional turn of course in desires, thinking, and behavior. One-Eighty Counseling and Education draws our name from this concept because we believe that a true and lasting 180° change in a person’s life is possible. We believe this sort of redemptive transformation is possible only through the movement of God that comes through redemption in Christ and the resources he has provided; the power of the Holy Spirit, the Word, a community of believers (the church), and often, a trusted and knowledgeable counselor who is willing and able to come alongside the hurting. Fully convinced of the sufficiency of God and His Word to change lives, One-Eighty purposes to partner with individual churches to offer practical training, trusted resources, quality biblical counseling, and counseling ministry development – all within a mentorship model that values humility, pastoral oversight, supportive accountability and the help of a church advocate for the counselee. Vision: Strengthening the local church’s ability to provide biblical soul-care to its people
Mission: Providing Scripture-based discipleship counseling training through seminars, counseling services and practical, life-changing resources
Values: Submission to the authority of Christ and his Word • Love for the local church • Passion for the power of God’s Word to transform lives
