How often has some one come to you or your church or ministry with hurts and problems which require Professional and Clinical therapy? As a Pastor or Staff person you have undoubtedly been frustrated with the lack of local Christ-Centered resources available. Your Pastor’s heart wants to help, but you are keenly aware that you may be over your head. Your schedule will hardly allow another minute, yet you realize that this is critical to their Mental, Emotional, Spiritual and yes, Physical Health. What do you do? 

  In most cases in Polk County, Florida the options are limited. There are plenty of secular facilities available, but they do not offer a Christ-Centered approach to Therapy. Often, these Clinics, who have Christian on staff are not allowed to counsel from a biblical perspective and cause more problems than they might solve.    

  You have learned in your experience that you dare not take on delicate issues ”in a Therapeutic Counseling setting.” Counseling, your church members other than in a "Spiritual Counseling setting" lends itself to uncovering  embarrassing issues. Once a church member has “bared their soul” you can almost be assured that they will love you forever but will transfer to another church where their secret is unknown. This is human nture and many churches are testimonies to the unsuccessful “Pastor as Counselor” approach.    

  So, what are your options?  Send them to secular Facilities, take on the time consuming/ frustrating  task of Pastor/Counselor, Send them away without help or hope? 

 OR  

Keep your hurting people at your church or ministry facility and allow them the Professional and Clinical Christ-Centered approach to therapy, Sponsor the “un-churched”  as a ministry of your church and encourage these folks to incorporate into your church.
