Is there any Hope?

Have you wondered why the new counseling center was named the Bridge of Hope? If you ask each of the counselors, you might receive differing answers. 
There are times in all our lives when we feel no one really understands what we are experiencing. There may be times when we even wonder if our Heavenly Father cares. We live in a fallen world and will experience being both victims and agents of sin. Feelings of hopelessness and helplessness can overwhelm us and we don’t know what to do. Is there any hope?

Here at the Bridge of Hope Counseling Center are a group of professionally trained counselors who are ready to serve as that bridge during times of struggle. It makes a difference to share your struggles with someone who is there to listen, to offer hope for your struggle, to assist you in finding new pathways to healing.

In the book of Proverbs, chapter 13, verse 12 we read “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life.” Life robs us of hope when we focus on the struggles. We need each other to refocus. At times we especially need someone trained as a professional counselor to help us dream again. We are available to offer that Bridge of Hope.
