This workshop on dealing with suicide will begin with a session for pastors and counselors and will end with a session for the entire church.   

PRESENTERS:

• Scott M. Gibson (DPhil, University of Oxford) holds the David E. Garland Chair of Preaching and is the director of the PhD in Preaching Program at Baylor University/Truett Seminary (Waco, TX). He is cofounder of the Evangelical Homiletics Society and the author or coauthor of several books on preaching.  

• Karen Mason has an MA in Old Testament and a PhD in counseling psychology and is professor of counseling and psychology at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (South Hamilton, MA). She is the author of Preventing Suicide: A Handbook for Pastors, Chaplains and Pastoral Counselors (InterVarsity Press, 2014).  

There is no cost for the workshop. We want to offer this as a resource to pastors and churches especially in dealing with this sensitive issue. We will be taking an offering to help defray the cost of the workshop during the evening session.
