Our Counselors
Audrey Henley
Audrey is a sinner, by virtue of being in Adam’s race; a sufferer, by virtue of living in a fallen world; and a saint, by virtue of her union with Jesus Christ. She believes that God has supplied us with everything we need for life and godliness and that hope and help can be found in the person of Jesus Christ and His living Word. She believes that God is in the transforming business of making all things new, that Christ is our life, and that people can change! She longs for people to “taste and see that the Lord is good”! Her passion is studying, teaching and counseling the Word of God.
She has been a Biblical Counselor since 2002 and certified by the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors in 2010. She serves in Women’s Ministry at Whitesburg Baptist Church as a Bible teacher for the Early Bird Bible Study Group. She works for NABC (North Alabama Biblical Counseling) as an Instructor/Trainer of Biblical Counseling and as a Biblical Counselor. She volunteers as a Chaplain for Southern Baptist Disaster Relief. She is a student at Southern Seminary, and in her spare time, she enjoys reading, learning to sew, traveling, and just spending time with people.
Audrey is the daughter of Ron and Dianne Queen and grew up as a military child. In 1979, she married Jerry Henley, an engineer by trade and a lover of God and family by heart. Jerry and Audrey live in the Southern State of Alabama in a white frame house with a wrap around porch. Together, they have brought up six children who are now scattered all over the world. There are two grandchildren, Emma and Anna Joy, that bring a smile to Audrey’s face every time they are mentioned and if you ask, she’ll be sure to tell you the latest “grand-story”!
