Anchor Christian Counseling and The Counselors

Anchor Christian Counseling and The Counselors We provide counseling that is truly professional, while integrating a Biblical perspective. The Counselors are Harley Holden, Diana Gefroh and Valerie Lange.

They offer a combined experience of over 40 years of counseling with a wide variety of clientele. They have worked in private practice, Teen Challenge, the ND penitentiary and the North Dakota State Hospital. They are committed to providing counseling that is professional and that which integrates the biblical perspective as well. They are compassionate, caring and deeply committed to helping people find life at its best. They see life as a great adventure where the difficulties/stresses/troubles of life are simply gateways to understanding more of self and identifying issues of concern. It is the hope of The Counselors to use these very issues to bring their clientele into a life that is richer and fuller.

My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, James 1:19 NIV‬

The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out. ‭Proverbs 20:5 NIV‬

These Scriptures are about how to have great relationships!

And That's the heart of the Gospel!

“Empathy is so important because it meets two of our deepest needs: the fundamental need to be understood and a deep need to have our feelings validated. . . . 1. Slow down. 2. Ask questions. . . . That’s how you develop empathy. . . . The other thing you do is learn to linger. 3. Show emotions.” Better Together Devotional by Rick Warren

“Friends love through all kinds of weather, and families stick together in all kinds of trouble” Proverbs 17:17 MSG

Let's do this!!!

“Trust is the emotional glue that draws you closer to your friends, your family, and your small group. Without trust, you’re never going to have the intimate relationship that God wants you to have. Teamwork without trust is impossible.” Better Together Devotional by Rick Warren

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. ‭James 5:16 NIV‬

Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. ‭Proverbs 28:13 NIV

These verses underlie the success of 12-step groups & the importance of confessing our sins - in addition to confessing them to God for forgiveness!

Having a group &/or an individual who understands confidentiality to where you can confess your sins. . . offers emotional healing & cleansing . . . A new start!

But have nothing to do with irreverent and silly myths. Rather, train yourself in godliness, 1 Timothy 4:7 HCSB‬

We are influenced & affected by our involvements!

U intended for us to be curious & intrigued! But U didn't intend we'd be drug around with everything that comes along!

Lord, help us always keep U & Your Word as our Anchor!

When we have the opportunity to do good to anyone, we should do it.
Galatians 6:10 ERV

04/28/2024

When we have the opportunity to do good to anyone, we should do it. But we should give special attention to those who are in the family of believers! ‭Galatians 6:10 ERV‬

Paying attention gives worth to whomever & whatever we pay attention to!

We show that we value others by giving them our time & attention!

This is a simple, powerful truth!
Giving attention to others is life-giving & life-changing!!!

“So why do people in the family of God get special attention?

Because whatever you pay attention to is going to grow.” Better Together Devotional by Rick Warren

“May you be able to feel and understand … how long, how wide, how deep, and how high [God’s] love really is; and to experience this love for yourselves” Ephesians 3:19a TLB

I love these passages - they draw me into pursuit of U!

That I may receive “the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.”

That I “May feel and understand . . . and to experience this love for yourselves”

Lord draw me in!
