OUR FATHER'S PERSISTENT LOVE MINISTRIES, INC.




Counseling Philosophy

We believe that true counseling can only be done through the truths of God's Holy Word. We have been recently trained in Biblical or "Nouthetic" counseling. Nouthetic comes from the Greek word meaning: to admonish, warn, confront, and instruct. This type of counseling is not based on present day secular views and psychology. We believe that God's Word is sufficient!

See the following scriptures:
(Acts 20:31, Rom. 15:14, I Cor. 4:14, Col. 1:28, Col. 3:16, I Thess. 5:12, I Thess. 5:14, II Thess. 3:15)

Helping people change and grow and be more like Jesus is our ultimate goal.

1)  Discerning what is going on in the counselee's heart.

2)  Using God's Word to change the counselee's thinking and behavior.

3)  This will help them fulfill their God given purpose in life, which is to glorify God.
