About Us

Make Someone Great Today is a counseling and equipping ministry of Dave Dicken that brings hope to people in pain, helping them move toward healing, wholeness, and community. 


 

Values

  • Compassion—a heart of mercy for people in pain

  • Listening—suspending judgment to deeply understand

  • Presence—being truly present and with you

  • Dignity—everyone is able and worthy of positive change

 

Strategies and practices

  • Encourage people to grasp their true identity as a journey of transformation. 

    • Collaborate with students to solve their own problems as we come alongside them. 

    • Assist students to develop new skills to better manage their emotions and life’s challenges. 

    • Empower students to move from survival-mode feelings of doubt and crisis — to believing they can thrive and achieve their dreams.

  • Use practices that are deeply relational, faith-based, and holistic

    • Provide relationally rich training through mentoring, one-on-one coaching, or group support that reinforce the honor and dignity of each student.

    • Model best practices in self-care and supporting people in pain 

    • Use faith-based material so students gain a deeper understanding of God, themselves, others, and life’s difficult circumstances. 

    • Employ a holistic approach to serving students—combining emotional support, knowledge forums, and study material. 

      • This equips students to have the proper interpretation of life’s stressors, losses, relationships, and the discovery of who we really are. 

      • We believe that this holistic approach best serves our students and is God’s original design.
