Think Lifechange exists to:
1. Equip the Saints Through Discipleship
2. Comfort the Broken-hearted Through Counseling
3. Offer Bible-centered Books, Bible Studies, and Audio Messages.

Over the past two decades, the church has been inundated and has even embraced the tenants of secular psychology disguised in spiritual terminology.  Surprisingly, many pastors have turned to other sources to help hurting people besides the Bible, as if the sacred scriptures do not contain what is needed to meet people’s deepest needs. Dr. Kerry L. Skinner has adeptly seen these disguises and is on a quest to return counseling for Christians back to its guide for the problems we encounter – the Word of God. With the Bible as his sword, Dr. Skinner cuts through the pseudo-spiritual Christian counseling maze and reveals that the heart of our problems is a problem of the heart.  Every pastor as well as every lay person who desires to counsel fellow believers should always do so from the precious truths taught in scripture.  Dr. Skinner, through his books, seminars and now his ‘Think LifeChange Institute for Biblical Counseling’, will equip you and challenge you to return to the sufficiency of scripture for the answers to life’s difficulties.

Ephesians 4:11-12 is the biblical description of the relationship I have with Dr. Kerry L. Skinner. Kerry was called by God to teach and equip me to do the work of the Laity Care Center ministry. Kerry asked me to direct the first biblical counseling ministry he established in 2006 at Cottage Hill Baptist Church. Since then, we have ministered to thousands of clients, seeing so many of them greatly strengthen their personal relationship with the Lord. We most often see people reverse their untoward behavior(s) such as anger and unforgiveness and restore their strained interpersonal relationships. Marriages are being saved. Thoughts of suicide are being abolished. We counsel under the leadership of the Holy Spirit and God is consistently being glorified. I thank God for Kerry every day as biblical counseling helped me understand who I am in Christ, what is my purpose here on earth and exactly what it is that I should be doing.

The Biblical counseling that my son received after years of seeing a psychologist changed his life and because of the complete change in his behavior and attitude, I had to find out all I could about it. I began attending the counselor training classes and the principles I learned have helped me in dealing with many of my patients. I work in internal medicine, primary care and often see those suffering with depression or other problems that don’t respond to medications. There IS real help available and I believe it begins here.

Kerry Skinner has been a pastor, mentor, and dear friend to me and my family for nearly 40 years.  I have observed him as he lovingly but firmly and effectively applies the truths of the Word of God to real life situations and issues in my life and others.  I have benefited from the use of his resources and counsel in my ministry now for the past 25 years.  I am excited that many others across the Kingdom of God will now have the opportunity to be formally equipped in Biblical Counseling through Kerry and Think LifeChange Institute of Biblical Counseling.
