There is hope!
Are you in a challenge feeling there is no more you can do? Are you having a difficult time persevering through emotions like anger, anxiety, bitterness, depression, guilt or grief? Maybe you have given up hope for overcoming some stubborn addiction, financial challenge, eating issue or physical challenge.
There is help!
God can cause all the trials of your life to accomplish a greater good in the end, if you will seek Him and His answers. This is the clear hope repeatedly testified throughout Scripture and by the many who have come to the center for help.

What Is True Change?
We nurture what is called Biblical transformation. This accomplishes far more than just behavioral modification or conceptual change. Biblical transformation is heart change. Your heart, your core – the things that rule and motivate you begin to change. Christ came to give this abundant life – this water that quenches your thirst. The Word of Christ can quiet, strengthen and direct you to a new or deeper walk with God that will solve your most fundamental problems. By this, many families in conflict have found peace and restoration. Many individuals ruled by depression, anxiety, anger, hurts, sins and addictions have found freedom and joy.
If you are ready for a new approach to solving old problems or if you are interested in learning how to help people change, contact us or visit our website. You will learn, as others have discovered, something distinctly biblical, practical and effective.
Frequently Asked Questions About Biblical Counseling
Compiled and Edited by Dennis M. Swanson From Introduction to Biblical Counseling, John F. MacArthur, Wayne Mack, and The Master’s College Faculty, Word Publishing, © 1994
The purpose of this book is to help both pastors and laypeople become familiar with the principles of biblical counseling and to apply them in the life of the Church. Because the concept of integration has held sway for so many decades and the psychological model for counseling has been virtually unchallenged in the Church, Christians have raised many questions regarding the entire concept of biblical counseling. Jay Adams, in his book What About Nouthetic Counseling (Baker, 1976), dealt with many questions about this subject, but there have been additional and more pointed questions posed of biblical counseling since then. The questions presented here represent a sample of questions that are most frequently asked. The answers to these questions have been prepared by various members of the staff and faculty of The Master’s College, Grace Community Church, and others who contributed to this book.
