COUNSELLING THERAPY - scripture is the final authority on life's issues

Contrary to what many people may believe, Christians aren't immune from the challenges and difficulties in life, which means that they also have to contend with spouses in affairs, rebellious children, substance abuse and terminal illness. But as Christians, they can find help from Christian counselling therapy which will provide answers on how to overcome these challenges, while providing assurance that God has promised to be with them in facing life's trials.

Christian counselling therapy is fundamentally different from ordinary therapy as the counsellors are guided by the teachings of The Bible rather than psychological theories, and while they may incorporate psychology into their therapy, they view the scripture as the final authority.

Biblical counseling seeks to carefully discover those areas in which a Christian is disobedient to the principles of Scripture, and helps us discover ways to lovingly submit to God's will. Christians may be embarrassed to share their problems with someone else or believe that they can solve the problem on their own, but counselling therapy can offer an impartial and objective listener, and offer support and help.

At Family Life, we have a desire to help individuals, couples and families who have reached a point of despair. If you have families in your congregation who are battling with divorce, separation, abuse, death or illness, we have a realm of bible-based resources – films, literature, conferences and more - to assist in handling all sorts of challenges. Our conferences balance fun and relaxing times with times to reflect and learn what God's wants to say. All of our awesome resources will assist anyone facing major decisions, and will also assist families to lead a happier life.

Even if you are a Christian, you may be dealing with stress and conflicts, and counselling therapy can be a great help as it provides the strength to face adversity and troubling situations.
