Dr. John Free teaching at The Center


Dr. John Free
comes to The Center

Among the 11 classes offered this Fall at The Center are two that are taught by long-time Pepperdine University professor Dr. John Free. Dr. Free recently moved to Boise and is eager to share his wealth of knowledge and experience with the community of students around Boise. I can personally vouch for Dr. Free as an excellent teacher as I took his "Counseling for Ministers" class during graduate school (it is offered at The Center this year at undergraduate level). He has a wealth of academic knowledge, but brings it to life with his ability to apply it practically in everyday life.

If you are interested in understanding how to better help people through hard times in life,
Counseling for Ministers is for you. No matter if you are going into full-time ministry or not, this course will help you develop skills in helping minister to others through the ups and downs of life. Click here for details.

If you are married, you know of the forces that work against the commitment you have made to your spouse. Dr. Free's class
Marriage and Family Preparation and Development will prepare you for or assist you in keeping your covenant to your spouse. If you are already married or plan to be married someday, this class will help you along your journey. Click here for details.

I encourage you to see if one of these classes will fit your schedule this semester. As always, please pass this information along. We need your help to get the word out as our advertising efforts can reach only so far.
