Slowing Time

By Lana Lyman | June 7, 2025

This world is addicted to many things, and speed is one of them.  Before the Industrial Revolution, life and work were largely governed by natural rhythms—seasons, daylight, and human limits. However,…

It’s Time to Apologize!

By Daniel Sirstad | May 3, 2025

It’s time to apologize! One of a Christian’s most powerful words is “I’m sorry.” Not out of habit, not to smooth things over, but from a heart that understands the weight of sin and the beauty of grace. As followers of Jesus Christ, we are not called to pretend we’re perfect — we are called to walk…

The Power of Forgiveness

By Lana Lyman | April 5, 2025

Proverbs 18:14, “The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?”  “The human spirit can endure a sick body, but who can bear a crushed spirit?” NLT When our spirit is strong and healthy, we can survive problems and difficulties.  But if our spirit is wounded, we do…

Active Accountability

By Daniel Sirstad | February 1, 2025

Active accountability is essential for Christians who seek to grow in faith, maintain spiritual integrity, and live according to God’s will. Unlike passive accountability, which may rely on occasional check-ins or correction when mistakes are noticed, active accountability is intentional, consistent, and proactive. It requires a commitment to transparency, regular self-examination, and a willingness to…

Trust The Process

By Lana Lyman | January 4, 2025

Trust the process. Merriam-Webster’s dictionary defines a process as “a continuing development involving many changes.” Time is referred to many times throughout Scripture, with over 500 verses that refer to time in some manner. Solomon, a man of wisdom, taught us that “to everything, there is a season, a time and a purpose under heaven.”…

Client Testimonials

Since this month is pastor appreciation, I wanted to let you know I appreciate your counsel. I realize you are not my pastor but I felt this was an appropriate time to show my appreciation.

Looking back, I can see how fragile and confused I was when I made the first call. I had difficulty even making the call. To be truthful, I was very apprehensive about starting counseling. By the second session, I knew I had made the right choice. In the midst of the most difficult year of my life, I feel I have grown emotionally and spiritually. I have more understanding about whom I am and a deeper relationship with God.

Thank you for providing Godly counsel and taking the time to help a broken individual sort though all kinds of emotions, so healing could take place.

I just wanted to take the time to say… Thank you!
