Q: Is there anything that makes your counseling and discipleship ministry distinct?

A: Our pastor is trained in Nouthetic (Bible-based) counseling. If you would like more information on Nouthetic Counseling, please check out the website nanc.org

Q: Who benefits from this form of counseling?

A: Anyone who may have struggles in their marriage, step-families learning to function or those facing issues raising their children and teens; those dealing with addictions, depression, coping with a lost loved one, or just about any matter you are facing. The key to finding answers is in applying God's Word to specific problems.

Q: What do you expect from those you counsel?

A: We ask that you be open and honest in the counseling process. It is very hard, if not impossible, to help you if you are not honest with us. We also ask that you do specific, weekly assignments that will be assigned to you throughout the counseling process. We will be considerate and understanding to the amount of time you have to do these assignments but keep in mind, our goal is to help you grow. Growing is done not only in the counseling session but in application of these principles in everyday life.

Q: What does this service cost?

A: Our counseling services are free of charge. It is our goal to help people in their lives. We believe this is ultimately done through application of God's Word to problems you may have. Thus, we would consider it a honor and a privilege to help you.

Q: What is the first step in setting up a counseling session?

A: Contact us via the "contact us" or by phone, (219) 696-0205, to set up an appointment.
