Christian Marriage Counselors

Christian Counselors

There is wisdom in a multitude of counselors the Bible says. "Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed." Proverbs 15:22. People who have tunnel vision, those who are locked into one way of thinking, are likely to miss the right road because they have closed their minds to any new options. We need the help of those who can enlarge our vision and broaden our perspective. Seek the advice of a professional and those who have a wealth of experience.

Do not end a marriage without first seeking help and advice.

Do your homework before visiting any type of Christian counseling center or individual counselor. There are many counselors listed in the yellow pages and online. Call your pastor, who, by the way, may himself be a trained and certified Christian counselor. If he is not, ask for his advice on where to seek counseling.

Christian marriage counselors can be costly. Many professional counselors may actually be covered by your health insurance or by the company you work for. Employers realize that if there employee is healthy emotionally and mentally they are a more productive worker. Do not hesitate to ask your boss or check with your insurance provider.
