How We Counsel and Why It Works

Our counselors are not trained to give you advice. Instead they are trained to listen for the fruit that is being reaped in your life in spite of your best efforts to avoid or improve that bad fruit. From the evidence of that bad fruit we help you to identify and to face soberly the real roots of the troubling issues in your life.

From those bitter roots, we help you see where you as a descendant of your ancestors, as the progeny of your parents, and as the child growing in the midst of an imperfect community, have already shared in some of Christ's sufferings, but understandably as a child and even as an adult have failed to recognize those sufferings as a participation in His sufferings much less to endure them with His grace.

We will help you understand what it meas to "be conformed to the image of Jesus' death" and help you to appropriate being "crucified with Christ" right in the midst of your difficult, frustrating, painful and seemingly impossible circumstances, in a much more personal way and not just as a sentimental reflection on Christ's experience of the Cross.

We will help you experience personal transformation. We will help you sanctify your marriage. We will help you sanctify and cleanse your children of what they have already inherited and learned that you never wanted to pass onto them, even if you never thought about that consciously.

We will teach you how to you achieve affective intercession for family members, friends and others who are part of the drama of your life, since Christ ever lives to make intercession, one of the hallmarks of our lives should be selfless intercession for those we love and even for those who have established themselves as our enemies.

We will help you be restored to your calling and destiny because Romans 12:1-2 promises that will be the result of you making yourself a living sacrifice.
