ABOUT US

Kim Herum M.A.

In 1982, upon completion of our undergraduate studies, my husband Mike and I left for the Middle East as missionaries and eventually ended up in Europe reaching out to Middle Eastern refugees.  Upon returning to the States in 1995 I struggled through ‘the dark night of the soul.’  After four years of struggling alone, I finally received counseling from my pastor, which convinced me of the benefit of the Body of Christ ministering healing to one another.

In 2002 I received a Masters Degree in Urban Ministry majoring in Pastoral Counseling, and Marriage and Family Therapy.  Although I have the academic requirements to pursue state licensure as a Professional Counselor or as a Marriage and Family Therapist, I have chosen to minister through a healing ministry and am not licensed by the state of Alabama.

I began Council of God Ministries in 2002 in Greenwood, Indiana where I ministered for four years until our recent move to Alabama in 2006.  During this time, I attended seminary taking some post-graduate classes, and was a Hospital Chaplain Intern participating in two semesters of Clinical Pastoral Training.
