Equipping churches with gospel-rich counseling.

Encouraging counselors with meaningful support.

Extending Christ’s care through Word & Story.

Word & Story:

Where God’s Word Meets Your Story.

Where Your Story Finds Meaning

In His Word.

-Core Values-

01
Christ-centered Care

We depend entirely on Jesus. We believe his saving work on the cross is what enables true healing restoration and transformation.

02
Theologically-rich Methodology

We’re serious about rightly handling God’s word. We view our counseling as the theological discipline of bringing comfort encouragement and guidance from the word into the lives of our counselees.

03
Individually Tailored Support

We’re attentive to your story. We avoid one-size-fits-all applications of scripture by studying our experiences and carefully discerning your needs.

04
Local Church Partnership

We exist to support the local church. We partner with churches and pastors to ensure counselees remain under their care connected to their local church community.

How we’ve helped : Who we’ve helped

“This life therefore is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness, not health, but healing, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it, the process is not yet finished, but it is going on, this is not the end, but it is the road. All does not yet gleam in glory, but all is being purified.”

- Martin Luther -
