The Balm Of Gilead Ministries Christian Counseling & Resources
The word of God declares that He comforts us in tribulation that we may also comfort others with the same measure of comfort that we have been comforted. That is the burning desire that we have in our hearts. God heals us and gives us a life beyond our pain and uses us radically where we were wounded the most.

We pray that you find the healing that you are seeking. The Balm of Gilead is a Christian Counseling, Education & Resource Ministry of The Living Word Church. We are a group of counseling professionals and ministry individuals whose lives have been radically changed by the healing power of God.

Counselor and author of Hurting Hearts Restored - Healing The Roots That Bind. Workshop Is Available NOW! Start Anytime, Work at your own pace. Our churches are filled with believers who love Jesus, but are often overwhelmed, weighed down, bound up and defeated by life's issues such as fear, depression, anxiety, people pleasing, betrayal, rejection, anger, unforgiveness, addictions, relationship conflict, etc.
Come and enjoy a sweet intimate time with the Lord as we Spring Forward into a deeper relationship where life blooms. This is not just another conference; its a time of fellowship for women who are seeking an authentic and intimate relationship with the Lord. We are serious about taking off the mask that keeps us from entering into His Life.
Real life is complicated and messy. Real life is much more than a pretty photo put out on social media. We all have stories. At the I Am His Conference, their heart is to connect real women who have lived a real life that doesn't always go the way they dreamed.

To hear from women who have experienced the realities of being forever changed by circumstances that are at times unexpected, hard and unfair, and how they have found healing and their true identity in Christ.Join them for a day divinely designed with your story in mind. They've been praying for you.
Have you reached a place where your circumstances, relationships or other factors are causing you severe emotional pain? Are you finding it difficult to claim God's promises over your life? Jesus said that He came to give us life and that more abundantly. You are a child of promise and should be experiencing the fullness of Christ despite the wounds of the past or the circumstances around you.
Fear, betrayal, rejection, anger, unforgiveness, addictions, unhealthy relationships and relationship conflict, are just some of the real life struggles facing God's children today. Our churches are filled with believers who love Jesus, but are often overwhelmed and weighed down; bound up and defeated by life's issues.

The balm of Gilead has been such a blessing in my life. After my experience I believe everyone should go though this healing process of understanding ones past and allowing Jesus to work in your life! While I am still working on finding compete freedom the balm of Gilead has given me the tools to be able to understand how to tap into the lord's grace and understand why I react and feel hi he based on my past! I can not recommend them enough! I plan on retuning for pre-marital counseling with my fiancé! This ministry is truly a blessing from the lord!

The counselors works well with your

The Balm of Gilead was instrumental in God's plan to bring me into greater freedom in Him. It was such a blessing working through all that God wanted to redeem with the help of wise counsel. The program is incredibly unique and profoundly life changing should you put in the time to read the assigned scripture, pray, and do the homework each week. I am eternally grateful for Terese and BoG for everything!

Dude, literally been recommending this to EVERYONE who wants to be free from their past and truly made new in Christ. So much is carried around that is unbeknownst to us until we take the time to actually dig through everything and throw out the bad from our lives.

My counselor was Terese. She called me about a week after filling out the interest form on their website.

I was kind of nervous when she called, but I was ready to heal. I was ready to go into the nitty gritty with a stranger because I trusted God and Terese built trust with me on that first phone call and our first meeting. She told me on the phone what the counseling was going to be like.

It is hard work. And it is all worth it. I have never felt freer than after going through Biblical counseling with Balm of Gilead.

My mind began to see the chains and strongholds-lies and deceptions and

I was unfortunately unable to continue attending because my commute was too difficult. However, I did meet with Tereze and was absolutely comforted by the fact that I was being cared for by another Christian. As well as faith, I think this ministry cares for the deepest parts of your healing and does so with purpose and a thought-out method. Loved that there is a storying aspect to the whole process. Wish I lived closer!

When I first came to the Balm of Gilead I didn't really know what to expect. I was a little bit nervous and hesitant because I had not done counseling in years and I had been through so much since then. But I felt comfortable as soon as I walked in!
The office is so cozy. It has a feel to it like you are at home. It doesn't really seem like a counseling office at all, it's very welcoming.

The building is really easy to find and there's always lots of parking.

The counselor I was assigned to was Terese and she was amazing! The first time I met with her she made me feel really

God has used this ministry to help heal my hurts. The thing that I love the most is the desire of it's leaders to make sure that the truths found in God's Word take precedence over anyone's thinking or beliefs.

The Balm of Gilead has changed my life. Praise God ❤️ I have been going for about 6 months or longer and I had started as a hurting, confused spirit. And now I am free to live a life God intended for me to live. I am still going actually. There is an upcoming class that I will be at which is on the website. Also...there is a webinar for you to join in, if you can not make it. Look at the website
