Dr Wayne Mack came to South Africa in 2005 to teach Biblical Counselling. At that time, he was the only light on the Biblical Counselling tree in the country. During these formative years, he trained many pastors and key lay people in Biblical Counselling. Some of his students pursued their master’s degrees in Biblical Counselling through The Master’s University, Faith Bible Seminary and The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. There are South African nationals who are currently teachers in the Strengthening Ministries Training Institute (SMTI). As evidence of SMTI’s indebtedness to Dr Mack and his faithful ministry, as well as the programme’s desire to honour him, Dr Wayne Mack has been awarded the title of professor emeritus.
