Josue “James” is not a therapist, and this shouldn’t be a substitute for therapy. However, there is a middle ground which is currently a gap. Many people do not feel comfortable enough to share their “real selves” with their friends, family, community members, or church leaders and pastors.

Josue earned his Masters Degree in Theology and Biblical Studies from Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, CA. He also holds a bachelor’s degree in Information Systems from California Polytechnic University in Pomona, CA.

This unique blend of studies, along with his nearly 40 years of experience teaching, leading, and fostering trust within Protestant, Evangelical, Pentecostal, and Christian communities have enabled him to listen and care for others instead of approaching people as a judge. It isn’t something that is commonly practiced among communities of faith and it can be hard to find someone who can care enough to simply listen or share openly and honestly.
