Description
What Can I Say? When a friend?s in pain, what do you say? Do you stall and sputter, like a foot just landed in your mouth?

Most of us grope for the right words, feeling unequipped for the task. But we don't need to respond that way. The words of a friend - your words - can inspire hope and healing. Friendship Counseling provides strugglers with meaningful, life-changing assistance. Modeled after Christ's interaction with suffering people, Friendship Counseling will help you offer others:
  • Permission to express doubts, anger, and questions
  • Hopeful "life words" that inspire ongoing healing
  • Ways to build deeper character and inner strength
  • Inspiration to draw closer to God, despite the pain
  • Encouragement to change personally and relationally

"People in pain need a spiritual guide who knows them, someone who knows how to come alongside and offer hope and direction," explains Huggins. "They need a guide who relates to them the way Jesus does." Using friendship counseling, that "someone" can be you. If you want to inspire positive change, offer words that heal instead of hurt, Give people the gift of friendship counseling.
