About Bill Faris, MPC

I have been involved in church ministry and professional Christian counseling ministry for a lifetime. 

I know the challenges and opportunities that go with a ministry lifestyle.  

That's why I can provide the kind of support Christian leaders and their staff members deserve. 

Help For Christian Leaders is my way of reaching out to people like you -- 

people who need a safe place to address the internal and external  demands -- 

and possibilities -- that go with a life of Christian service.  

Wouldn't it be nice to speak with someone who knows the road? 

* Appointments are private and privileged.

* Sessions can be scheduled on a regular and recurring basis, if desired.

*  God's Word and your faith are honored.

* Your concerns and goals set the agenda for our work together.

* Senior Leaders and / or staff members are invited to set up sessions.
