Biblical Counseling
The journey of life can be hard. Grief, fear, anxiety, depression, loneliness, illness, temptations, brokenness in the world, our own sin, and the sins of others produce legitimate suffering and often painful circumstances. Without help, we may find ourselves stuck, lost, or unable to move forward.
Biblical counselors* have the privilege of meeting you where you are and walking alongside you, encouraging you to remain faithful to God who is always faithful to you. A biblical counselor is a compassionate guide ready to encourage and equip you through the Word of God as you find your ultimate hope in His steadfast love for you.
*Biblical counseling is a means of spiritual formation, caring for the embodied soul. It is not licensed mental health counseling.
