Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM BBCC?

  1. Real answers to life’s problems from the Bible. It is your Creator’s handbook for living. It will give you God’s worldview so you can understand your problems in a whole new way.
  2. Encouragement in your successes by a staff who care for you and treat you with respect.
  3. Respect of your privacy unless in the opinion of your counselor, there is a Biblical requirement to involve others (e.g., criminal activity).

IS THERE REALLY ANY HOPE FOR THINGS IN MY LIFE TO GET BETTER?

God’s Word gives us answers for dealing with the problems you are facing. Most of our counselees see progress is 6 - 12 weeks. While our problems do not simply evaporate, we can gain hope and help when we submit to God’s instruction and hold onto His promises. We believe He has given us everything we need to live for Him in a God-pleasing way.

IS YOUR COUNSELOR QUALIFIED?

Your counselor has gone through extensive training in Biblical counseling. He is committed to regular enhancement of his training through seminars, conferences and continuing reading of pertinent material. He has regularly taught Biblical counseling to others in several states around the country. He is certified by the National Association of Nouthetic Counselors (NANC) and the International Association of Biblical Counselors (IABC), who set high standards for their members.

WHAT DOES BBCC EXPECT FROM ME?

Our counseling is free of charge.
