Counseling

introduction

Crosspoint Church Counseling Ministry exists for the purpose of helping people who are facing difficulties with life in our community. We seek to help people facing hardship, grief, depression, broken relationships, and a host of other life problems.

Our counseling is simple, straight forward, and practical. We work with families as well as individuals, young and old alike. We believe that you will find our counseling compassionate and filled with real and genuine hope. Our goal is to help you begin to respond to your problems by learning to follow and practice God’s Word in your daily life.

Why biblical counseling? Isn’t all counseling the same? Today, there are three primary choices to make regarding the counsel you receive. The first choice is to choose counseling that leaves God and His Word out of your life. This approach to counseling believes that man has the answers to life and we can trust the thoughts and ideas of men. We can call this secular counseling. The second choice is to choose counseling which seeks to mix both the ideas of men with that which God’s Word teaches us. We call this type integrated counseling. And finally, the last choice is to simply choose to take the counsel which God has given to us in His Word. We call this method biblical counseling.

We, at Crosspoint Church, believe that biblical counseling is based upon truth that has been given to us by God (2 Timothy 3:16) and is sufficient for living life pleasing to God. The goal of this counseling is that the brother or sister in need of spiritual counsel would grow in his understanding of how the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ speaks to every area of his life (directly and indirectly) and that he would respond, by God’s grace, (based upon one’s union in Christ) to that truth in grateful obedience (imperatives) in every circumstance to the building up of the church, the evangelization of the lost and all for the glory of God. We believe that God has given us His Word not only to show us how to have a relationship with God, but also how to live life for God, no matter what our circumstances might be at the moment (2 Peter 1:4).

God’s Word is sufficient to provide hope in the midst of life’s hardest and most difficult trials. Its timeless truths do not change from generation to generation. God, who is the Author of life, gives to us wonderful words of encouragement, wisdom, and direction for everyday living. It is our goal to help individuals find help for their everyday problems using the book meant to teach us about life.

We at Crosspoint seek to offer counseling to our community. Our counseling is done by those who have been trained to help people find hope and help from the Bible. The counseling sessions are provided at no cost to you.

If you or your family are in need of help, and you desire to have your counseling be biblical counseling, then please give us a call and we will be glad to assist you in making that possible. Remember, there have been many people down through the centuries who have faced incredibly difficult and hard trials, yet have found the Word of God to be sufficient to give them the direction that they needed for life.
