What Students, Graduates and Others Are Saying About
Mike B. - Murfreesboro, TN
The knowledge I am acquiring has been helpful to my practicum counselees. Not only are they learning about the
unique way God has created them but I am growing and learning more about myself in the process. I recently had the
incredible privilege of leading a husband and wife in the sinners prayer. I was so humbled by the experience.
It's so fun to watch God weave his perfect plan despite what I feel needs to happen.The realization that through this tra ining God will bring people into my path that need a deeper knowledge of themselves and Him just amazes me. I can't think of a better way for me to learn and train than this program. I find it to be understandable and thorough. Of course it helps to know that I can pick up my phone or email Dr. Mangus 24/7 and receive the guidance I need. Daily I am experiencing 2 Corinthians 1:3-5, All praise to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the source of every mercy and the God who comforts us. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When others are troubled we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.
Praise God.

The classes that I am taking through RMCM Ministries is helping me to get the credentials that I need so when
God places me in the counseling arena, I will be ready. I love the fact that I only have to take counseling
related classes and these classes are Scripture based. I thank God for Dr. Mangus and RMCM Ministries.
A ministry that really cares about people.

"Creation Therapy" is a very powerful tool! I am thankful to the National Christian Counselors Association for this
pioneering pastoral counseling breakthrough. I also thank RMCM and Dr. Bob Mangus for the personal encouraagement that
keeps me on track toward accomplishing my goal to become a competent and wise clinical pastoral counselor. I would
recommend this program to anyone who takes their calling to pastoral counseling seriously, and wants to be more
effective as a Biblical pastoral counselor.... A+++!

Dr. Mangus has been instrumental in mentoring and patiently guiding me through the learning process. I plan to
further continue my studies toward the PhD through RMCM Ministries in order to enhance my God given skills and talents
to help individuals in need for His eternal kingdom. My vision is to be an instrument that God uses to accomplish His
will in the lives of individuals. My mission is to direct people in need to the True Counselor, where they can find
genuine, life changing direction and healing.

I believe that which RMCM Ministries is offering to the church is ordained of the Lord. The course of study is
tailored for anyone from the lay person desiring to gain knowledge and skills to assist a Pastoral ministry as well
as to the person who feels divinely called of God to a professional counseling ministry. This world deserves better
than what the secular counselor can offer them, (which is precious little). That is where RMCM Ministries fits in.
I believe the course of study will equip the serious student to offer both the church and the hurting,
broken and hopeless of this world a true sense of purpose to not only exist but to thrive within their inborn
temperament. The emphasis of course is pointing people to Jesus Christ, which is central to the success of any
trained Christian Counselor.
I would highly recommend RMCM Ministries to anyone who feels the "call" to counseling at any level.
To date, the greatest benefit I have received is a better understanding of myself, which in turn has helped me to better
understand other people. I believe my Senior Pastor summed it up well after I shared with him the ministry of RMCM.
He said, "I wish I had something like this fifteen years ago, I could have used this and I could have saved myself a lot of
time and effort working with people." This ministry will definitely give you the tools necessary to be all God is calling you to be if that calling is to Christian counseling. Enough said!

RMCM Ministries !
My journey began in Feb 2006 as my wife and I prayed for God to show us (me) to an online place of learning
that would help equip. You see as my wife and I would share our story and how God was moving in our lives,
once we came together on focused on Him as a couple. God would place people in our path that were traveling the
roads we just traveled. God led me to RMCM. I spoke with Dr Bob on several occasions and his patience in answering
my questions was exemplary as I would call multiple times in a day as questions popped on my mind. in order to not
get in front of God I simply stated that I would take one course at a time and continue until I felt the Lord
taking us in another direction. It is now May 2008 and I stand close to receiving a Masters Degree through RMCM
(NCCA). The knowledge and tools learned through the Arno Profile System and the application has been amazing!
People are healing from the inside out as they learn and see how God put them together. Thanks Dr Bob for
guidance during my journey.
I am currently a student in the NCCA License, BA/MA Degree program. I entered this program with a bit
of anxiety as I am 48 years old and it has been quite some time since I had to buckle down, study and be tested
on the material I have learned. Through the grace of God He has enabled my mind to open up and receive the
knowledge to which He has called me for. Dr. Mangus has been an incredible support for me. Whether it be through a
phone call of encouragement or to answer my latest query, or his faithful prayers for me, I feel blessed beyond measure.
Though I came to RMCM Ministries with a Masters and PhD, certified in Myers Briggs
and other personality indicators none have matched what I learned from going through Phase I and II and
receiving my NCCA license. My education was greatly enhanced and having the Scriptures and Christian
beliefs applied to the discipline of counseling has proved already to be invaluable. The Arno Profile System I now use
in place of ALL my other assessment tools to help my clients. Its application is wide while providing
more depth and insight into those God has put in front of me. What a Blessing your teaching ministry is.
Blessed to be a Blessing is Dr. Mangus. Thank you and May God Continue to Bless Your Ministry.
I have been taking my program through RMCM Ministries for a little over a year now. I truly love it!
I had no idea what to expect. I thought I would take classes and get a job counseling, right? wrong!
God let me know right away that counseling is more than just a job. Counseling is loving people God's
way. Not only am I taking classes through RMCM Ministries, but God is also allowing me to be a volunteer
chaplain in one of our local hospitals. I am seeing counseling in a whole new light.
God is teaching me what He wants me to learn about people and grief. I know that I am where God wants me to be.
I have been a student with RMCM Ministries since December 2007. I am so grateful for what I have already learned, and
the amazing God we have. As I study, I am growing in the knowledge of the Lord's favor. The program has so much to
offer, especially spiritual guidance and teaching on how to treat and help the counselees. This program is exactly
what I was looking for. I recommend this program to every believer who is desiring to grow in, and serve the Lord, whether becoming counselors,
teachers, pastors, missionaries...........whatever the Lord is leading a person to do. My prayer is that this program
will be the one the person chooses. May the Lord bless RMCM Ministries in their goal of raising strong men and women
for the Lord's service.
Last month I selected the sexual disorder course because I knew I had a client coming in and felt it would be
helpful and it was. I finished the book last weekend and then God brought me a man who was suffering from
"Affirmation Addiction", I never would have understood the symptoms if I had not just read about them.
It was great!
I cannot tell you how my life has changed since I have been part of RMCM Ministries. I am a living example that
this program touches hearts and lives. I understand better why people do the things they do. Many times it isn't
because they want to, it is because they do not understand themselves either. I Praise the Lord Jesus Christ for the
knowledge this program has given to me! I can actually say that I can relate to the confusion in the lives of others
and I know that the greatest of these things is that Jesus loves us anyway. He created us all to love Him first
and then gave us the opportunity to understand and love others more thoroughly through Temperament Theory and
Temperament Therapy. I have already met with my first counselee and I loved every minute I was able to listen and s
hare the fact that there doesn't need to be confusion--we can know the answers to the questions about ourselves and
others. Thank you,
I am delighted with my program with RMCM Ministries and the NCCA ! With this program, I don't have to feel guilty for
working so hard, because it directly pertains to my pastoral calling. The coursework is interesting, challenging and
relevant. The Arno Profile system is uncanny in its ability to get to the heart of the issues, thus saving lots of
precious time.
Prior to enrolling with RMCM Ministries, I had searched - periodically - for nearly two years for an online PhD
program. Each time, there were significant obstacles in the way that prevented me from moving forward. When I
found this ministry, I was so excited. It is a reputable program, affordable, online, challenging and individually
paced. Each of these things were important to me and RMCM offered each of them. I am beginning Phase II of my program
and have found the materials thought provoking and challenging; and I am having the time of my life progressing through
the courses and practicumwork. I anticipate completing my degree sometime this year.
I have been blessed to see that God can use me in the counseling ministry and He has made the work rewarding.....As God
matures me in my walk and character, I see how I am growing to be equipped to mentor, encourage and disciple others to
follow Christ. I have been blessed to be a good listener and I (now) have a compassionate heart to support and enlighten
others about their new life in Christ. After investigating secular licensing curriculums I didn't feel inspired to
learn more secular theories and interventions when I believe that the Bible should be the primary tool for change and
for a rewarding life...In reviewing the degree options offered under NCCA, I was astounded to see that a doctorate
degree is manageable for me. I also investigated some other NCCA accredited educational programs and found the
personal, patient and quick attention (Dr. Mangus - RMCM Ministries) gave me was unmatched...........a distance
learning model is practical for me. Finally, I like the fact that the instruction is provided through a God inspired
ministry rather than directly by an actual (traditional) institution, as I like to support people's ministries and
visions.
A couple of nights ago, I had the experience of "sitting in" on a local class (covering the NCCA therapeutic model).
I am stunned out of my proverbial gourd ! I have had Psychology from Psych 101 to grad school educational Psych and
nobody all those years said a blessed thing about temperament. This could cause a lot of "free floating pieces"
to come falling into place. It has taken me this long to get over the shock I felt enough to write ! (48 hours).
Talk about an eye opening experience !
As I get ready to receive my certification, I must tell you that completing this program was one of the best
decisions that I have made throughout my career. The content is spiritually enlightening and personally
revealing. I would definitely recommend it to every Christian counselor. Thank you for your ministry.
Our ministry is currently in a building program which we hope to complete by the end of this year. The Lord
has shown me how my studies through RMCM will be used throughout our area. I am excited about the endless opportunities
that will be given unto me. Thank you Dr. Mangus for your quick responses to help me during times of need while
working with others.
At the age of 51, and 27 years in the corporate world, God led me to RMCM Ministries to begin the journey as
a pastoral counselor. He opened and closed several doors to influence and direct this decision. After 2 years of
study and graduation with my Master's degree through RMCM Ministries, God has allowed me to use my education and
credentials to impact several individual's lives for Christ. I have opened a pastoral counseling ministry with
2 sites, and the churches of these communities are receptive and supportive of the ministry services. God
continues to marvelously direct and supply for this counseling ministry. To God be the glory ! Phil. 4:19.
I enthusiastically recommend and endorse RMCM Ministries. I hold a Masters Degree and have taught at the college level,
and I can assure you that the course work and support offered by RMCM in conjunction with NCCA is of the
highest caliber. The course work is designed with the adult learner in mind. I have personally been blessed as well
as my clients through RMCM Ministries. If you have been called by God into Christian Counseling, I would highly
recommend this program.

I am writing this to wholeheartedly endorse the program of study offered by RMCM Ministries in conjunction with NCCA.
(National Christian Counselors Association). I have been both challenged and inspired by the program.
The excellent curriculum is an answer to my prayer to be better equipped to assist people who have dealt with deep
emotional issues for many years and seem to be locked into an endless cycle of pain and suffering.

As a chaplain, I am often called upon to counsel people, and this program of study has helped me immensely to fulfill
this calling. It gives structure and confidence to anyone wishing to fulfill the professional call into the counseling
ministry. It gives tools and skills that help the counselor to get to the underlying issues that might have laid beneath
the surface of a person's life for years. I have seen people transformed as they come to feel the affirmation of who they
truly are created to be by a loving Creator. It is with strong gratitude that I endorse this ministry and program.
I am very pleased with RMCM Ministries in the education and assistance I have received. The training I have received
has not only enabled me to counsel others; it has also changed my life. With this new knowledge, my marriage has
improved and I am more aware of how to handle and deal with people. We are all so very different and this training and
education shows you how to care for God's precious people based on their temperament. Thank you Bob for training and
guiding me in every step of the way. Your ministry has blessed my life and I am now able to share that blessing with
others. If you are at a place in your life where you are ready to fulfill the call of God to be a counselor, then I
would strongly recommend RMCM Ministries to you.
I am absolutely loving the material in the (therapeutic model Creation Therapy). I have read the entire first Unit
and am half-way through the Unit 1 workbook. It is SO fantastic to finally find a "plan" or "method" that actually
"makes sense" and is based on the truths of God's Word rather than a secular idea. The prospect of being able to
offer hope and help is thrilling, and as I study I find myself thinking of particular individuals and situations
that desperately need this knowledge. And yes, I have tried to figure out myself, and though we all have weaknesses,
God has also blessed each one with strengths that He wants to use for His Glory. May God continue to bless and
encourage you in this wonderful ministry!
