Our Philosophy
The SMCC Biblical Counseling and Discipleship Ministry offers hope and practical, Bible-based solutions for life’s challenges—including marriage and relationship issues, grief, addiction, financial struggles, anxiety, depression, and more.
We provide counseling for individuals, families, and couples, focusing on God’s Word as the foundation for healing, growth, and freedom from sin and suffering. Our trained volunteer peer counselors emphasize a restored relationship with God and are available for one-time or ongoing sessions, using Scripture as the primary guide.
"His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires." 2 Peter 1:3-4

FAQs
Who Counsels?
Biblical Counselors are extensively trained, qualified, and experienced men and women who are certified (or in the process of certification) with the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC) or the International Association of Biblical Counselors (IABC).
What Does It Cost?
Counseling is free. Our church provides the facilities, and counselors volunteer their time as part of our ministry and outreach.
How Long Does It Last?
Counseling is by appointment only with sessions that last around one hour. Sessions are done weekly or biweekly for about 10–12 weeks, adjusted as needed based on your progress.
Is It Confidential?
Yes, except in cases where the counselor is biblically required to report (e.g., criminal activity or child endangerment).
Is There Homework?
Yes. To ensure lasting change, homework must be completed between sessions for counseling to continue.
'Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.'
2 Corinthians 1:3-4
