| Introduction | As the Director and counselor for the Center for Biblical Counseling in Sunnyvale, California, I trained 100's of lay persons to do Biblical counseling. Toward that end, I wrote "Strategic Biblical Counseling," and "Are You Dying to Live the Abundant Life?" available on Amazon and other sellers. Additionally, I have been a pastor and an adjunct professor at a Bay Area Bible College. Committed to life-long learning, I have an M.A. in Marriage, Family and Child Counseling, a PhD in Psychology, and 24 units toward an M.A in Biblical Studies from Liberty University. Married 31 years to my wife Altha, founder of Well of Life Ministries, and author of "Come Up Higher," I am father of two adult children. Early in 2013, I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and had major surgery to remove the tumor. As of this writing, I am in remission. Many of my posts reflect my life-long pursuit: dying to live the abundant life. Dr. Greg Burts departed for higher ground on July 16, 2014. |
