Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
Biblical Counseling division of AMP Ministries
Welcome to Biblical Counseling Ministry
Why Biblical Counseling?
Biblical counseling involves understanding the problems faced in this world and very practical solutions from the perspective of Scripture. The Bible is used both to define the problems and to develop methods for solving them. Therefore, we apply a Biblical worldview to these problems. Our goal is to work with local churches and pastors to help people to apply God’s word through loving discipleship from trained counselors to promote the lasting heart change that transforms lives. We believe that real change comes when people learn to see themselves and their problems in the context of a living, vital relationship with Christ in a local Bible-teaching church. We provide Biblical counseling by qualified and certified counselors, free of charge; however, donations are appreciated.
Are Counseling Sessions Kept Confidential?
The Bible clearly states that gossip is wrong. Therefore, the counselors at BCM will not release information about particular counselees except in the few situations required by the Bible or by the mandated reporting laws of our State.
Those situations are:
1. When someone is in danger of harming themselves or others;
2. When a person child, adult or senor is physically or sexually abused, or
3. When someone persistently refuses to stop a sinful pattern and it is necessary to seek assistance from his or her Pastor.
We consider all our counseling to be an extension of the ministry of the local church and a way of serving and promoting its ministry.
APPOINTMENTS
Counseling appointments are made by an intake person, who has a list of counselors, their available hours, a summary of their education, experience, and areas of interest or expertise. Particular counselors can be requested and will be assigned depending on their availability.
BY APPOINTMENT ONLY
Before the first counseling session, each person must complete an application.
OUR COUNSELING
Counselors
The most important qualification of our counselors is that they have come to know Christ out of their own experiences of need. They bring the understanding and compassion learned in that relationship into their care for those who come to them for help. BCM counselors have also received formal training and certification in Biblical Counseling from certification organizations.
It Centers On A Relationship
The Bible speaks to every area of our lives. Biblical counseling deals with the entire range of problems confronting people including: broken marriages, parent child relationships, fear, depression, alcohol and drug abuse, tension, anxiety, worry and any other problems that may result in mental and or physical difficulty. BCM is equipped to deal with any problem dealing with ourselves, our relationship to God or others. We believe real and lasting change occurs when people know themselves and their problems within a living and vital relationship with Jesus Christ.
Elements of Biblical Counseling
Biblical counseling is committed to the position that Scripture provides the only authoritative guide for what we are to believe and how we are to live (2 Timothy 3:16-17). The Biblical Counselor is trained in the use of Scripture and the principles of biblical counseling. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, your counselor will teach you to use these biblical principles to glorify God in your life by enabling you to gain victory over the problems that are depriving you of God’s peace.
Counselees have said:
“Thank you so much for encouraging me
and helping to guide me with God’s word.”
“Words are not enough!
Thank you for all your time and patience you spent with me.”
“What a wonderful ministry!
Thank you for drawing me closer to the Lord and His Word.”
