Compassion Ministries
"Dedicated to Biblical Counseling"

"The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart." Psalm 19:7-8

Our Mission:
Our mission is to "equip the saints for the work of service." As Christians, we are commanded to "instruct, reprove and restore one another." (Matt. 18:15; 28:19-20)

As Biblical Counselors, our main goal is always to please God, not to change people. Although we draw upon our training as well as our personal experience, we depend wholly upon the Word of God to guide us in offering counsel. Romans 1:16 says, "I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes…"

Why Biblical Counseling:
As Biblical counselors, our responsibility is to offer you God's solutions. They are authoritative, complete and the only real lasting answer to your problems. As the definitive resource, the Word of God "provides all the needed principles and guidance for understanding our mental process, analyzing our emotional responses, and exercising control over our behavior.

2 Tim 3:16-17 "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."

Psalms 19:7 "The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul. The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple."

2 Pet 1:3-4 "His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires."

Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart."

When you depend on God's Word, no other resource is needed. God has given us everything we need.
