Academic Courses – Spring 2026

As a biblical form of pastoral counseling, Elijah House 201 lays the foundations for healing and transformation, for both students, and for equipping them to minister inner healing to others. Students will learn foundational principles and tools for dealing with personal and interpersonal issues. Students will learn to trace bad fruit to bitter roots formed in the heart, most often in childhood and how broken hearts can be healed through the biblical process of repentance and forgiveness.
