Need Counseling?
 

 

  

We understand that there are times in life where you just need a helping hand.

In fact, many people are doing very well in some parts of their life while struggling in others.

Now might be the time when you need someone to come alongside and encourage you from the Bible.

 

Below are some of the common questions we hear about our ministry.

Is there any hope for this to work?

We believe that God has given us all we need to know Him and to live in a way that is pleasing to Him.  All our difficulties may not evaporate.  However, when a person willingly submits to God's instructions and clings to his promises there is hope and help.
There are answers for dealing with whatever you might be facing. In fact, many of our counselees see significant progress in 8-12 weeks.

What kind of concerns do people that come for counseling have?

We see folks with all kinds of problems, but the most common would be those struggling in their marriage, helping parents with their children, those dealing with sexual sin, and those struggling with their emotions (e.g. depression or anger).  In all cases, we use the Bible, God’s Sufficient Word, to answer the problems of life.

Are the counselors qualified and when is counseling available?

All of our counselors, whether they are pastors or laypersons, go through a rigorous training program in biblical counseling.  At this time, our counseling is offered on Mondays from 1:15pm – 9:00 pm and on Wednesdays from 6:30 pm – 7:45 pm.

What does it cost?

Since Faith Baptist Church provides the facilities and the counselors volunteer their time we can offer the counseling free of charge.  However, out of respect for our staff we require a $25 deposit which is forfeited for last minute cancellations.  If a counselee leaves counseling or graduates from counseling without a cancellation the deposit is returned. 

 

What can I expect from FBCM if I come?

First of all, you can expect that everything will be held in strict confidence except where, in the counselor’s judgment, there is a biblical requirement to involve others (e.g. criminal activity).  

Second, you can expect that our staff will care for you and treat you with respect. Third, you can expect our staff to encourage you in your successes and exhort you to think and behave in a way that pleases Jesus Christ.

What does FBCM expect from you?

We have three requests from you. First, we ask you to be honest. It is very difficult, if not impossible, to help you if you continually lie to us. Second, we ask you to do weekly homework assignments that will encourage lasting change. Third, we ask you to give us a little time. Habits were not developed overnight and new habits will take several weeks to develop.

Where do you begin?

For more information or to schedule an appointment, phone (765) 448-1555 or email counseling@fbcmlafayette.org. We would love to hear from you.
