Eagle’s Way Ministries

Eagle’s Way Ministries exists to encourage believers, strengthen leaders, and provide biblically grounded teaching, pastoral care, and faith-based counseling within a Christian ministry context.

This page is provided for clarity and transparency regarding ministry structure, credentials, and scope of service.

❓ Is Eagle’s Way Ministries a legally recognized ministry?

Yes. Eagle’s Way Ministries is registered in Tallahassee, Florida as a Fictitious Name, in accordance with state requirements. This registration establishes the ministry’s public identity and allows it to operate transparently under Florida law.

❓ Who oversees or covers Eagle’s Way Ministries?

Eagle’s Way Ministries is led by an ordained minister under

United Faith Christian Ministries.

• Ordained since 2003
• Church Chartered since 2016
• Standing in good faith within an ecclesiastical (church-based) framework

This reflects biblical church polity, where ordination and ministry authority are recognized by the Body of Christ rather than by civil or academic institutions.

❓ Is United Faith Christian Ministries a valid ordaining body?

Yes—within its intended scope.

United Faith Christian Ministries is an ecclesiastical organization, not a government or academic accreditor. Its purpose is to:

• Ordain ministers
• Charter churches
• Provide ministry covering and accountability

Biblically, ordination is rooted in calling, character, confirmation, and the laying on of hands—not government accreditation.

❓ What type of counseling does Eagle’s Way Ministries provide?

Eagle’s Way Ministries offers faith-based, pastoral, and biblical counseling, not state-licensed clinical mental health services.

The ministry leader holds certification as a Christian Counselor (2024) through the

International Institute of Faith-Based Counseling.

This equips the ministry to provide Christ-centered pastoral care and ministry-based counseling within appropriate ethical and spiritual boundaries.

❓ Is IIFBC a government-accredited counseling school?

No—and it does not claim to be.

The International Institute of Faith-Based Counseling is a Christian training and certification institute designed for ministry and pastoral counseling contexts. Its certification is ecclesiastical and faith-based, distinct from state licensure or secular clinical credentials.

❓ Is Eagle’s Way Ministries pursuing academic excellence as well?

Yes. The ministry leader is currently pursuing a PhD in Christian Counseling, reflecting a commitment to lifelong learning, ethical care, and responsible integration of biblical truth with counseling practice.

❓ Why does Eagle’s Way Ministries distinguish between ordination, certification, and accreditation?

Because clarity matters.

• Ordination → Church recognition of calling and authority
• Certification → Specialized training within a ministry framework
• Accreditation → Academic recognition of institutions, not ministers

Using accurate language protects integrity and avoids confusion.
