We also know the end goal of counseling isn’t to “fix” a problem but to help us develop as healthier individuals and families. Living in a world marred by sin, we will encounter trauma, loss, grief, and difficulties. God has gifted and skilled counselors to help us process those times so we can heal, help others, and live for the utmost glory of God. We are grateful for our counseling team at Lifeline and the way they serve families.

Our vision is for vulnerable children and their communities to be transformed by the gospel and to make disciples. FOLLOW USFacebook, Instagram, TwitterThe Defender Podcast: Subscribe on iTunes | Transistor | SpotifyThe Defender Bible Study: Subscribe on iTunes | Transistor | Spotify
