Learn about the history, purpose, and goal of
the annual NorthCreek Counseling Training Conference

Since the Fall of 2010, we (NorthCreek Church) have hosted the NorthCreek Counseling Training (NCT) Conference. The conference has grown beyond our expectations without a grand vision other than to equip people to counsel/disciple others using the Bible.

In 2010 around 150 people attended out first conference, yet last year, over 750 people were in attendance from over 100 churches around Northern California. The impact on Northern California is undeniable when you consider that these people have returned to their churches with a greater desire and ability to minister the Word of God to others in need.

The NCT Conference is designed to help all Christians, including pastors and lay leaders, increase their skills and confidence in the private ministry of the Word. With a strong conviction of the sufficiency of Scripture for both salvation and sanctification, we seek to provide engaging speakers that exposit and apply the Word to relevant topics that men and women face. Topics like grief, fear, worry & anxiety, depression, pride, lust, anger, conflict resolution, forgiveness, reconciliation, communication, and parenting…nearly 100 unique topics every year!

The solutions to life’s problems that this conference offers are distinct from the world’s. We offer Christ: His love and compassion, His regenerating work in the hearts of men, and wisdom from His Word. He alone has the ability to meet us in every hurt, every pain, and every struggle we may face.

One misconception about the NCT (perhaps due to the stigma attached to the word “counseling”) is that the conference is only for pastors and experts – not true! Whether you are a pastor, counselor, lay leader, or simply “just someone in the church wanting to serve,” if you desire to help real people with real problems, using your Bible, this is the conference for you!

*Given the subject matter discussed, NCT is most suitable for believers in college and above.
