True Life Discipleship Counseling
Training & Resources
The True Life Institute is a structured course of study for selected individuals consisting of classroom instruction by the True Life staff, video and audio lectures, personal study, assigned reading, and dynamic small group interaction. The Institute is for anyone who is seeking to deepen their understanding and experience of knowing Jesus in an intimate and dependent way through a systematic approach to teaching one’s identity in Christ and the centrality of the cross. The Institute meets one evening a week for 18 weeks including some Saturdays.
All prerequisite reading must be completed and a TLI Book Review submitted to the before beginning the True Life Institute. Books may be purchased online at The Life Bookstore or Amazon.
True Life Advanced Training
The Advanced Training is an extension to the Institute, but with more of an emphasis on equipping individuals who are interested in communicating “Christ As Life” to others, either through formal counseling/discipleship opportunities, or simply to feel comfortable sharing Biblical truths with those in their sphere of influence. This course meets for 12 weeks, one night a week, and is accompanied by co-counseling and supervision requirements with a staff member. All of our offered training is a prerequisite to the Advanced Training and limited to a small number approved by the Director of Training.
