Good Counseling Restores
Restoration from Sin
“Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted.” ~ Galatians 6:1
Restoration from Suffering
“And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. ~ 1 Peter 5:10
Restoration in Relationships
“So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and
offer your gift.”
~ Matthew 5:23-24
Restoration in Purpose
“Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit. Then I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners
will return to you.”
~ Psalm 51:12-13
The Heart
is the target for
our conversations
Biblical counseling is restorative discipleship through intensive and intentional conversation that helps us deal with the sin and suffering that plagues us all in this fallen world.
