PRAYER

The Prayer of Faith

“13Is any one of you in trouble?  He should pray.  Is anyone happy?  Let him sing songs of praise.  14Is any one of you sick?  He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord.  15And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up.  If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.  16Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.  The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.”  ~James 5:13-16 (NIV)

GRIEFSHARE

Meetings are held in the red brick house in front of the church from 1 to 3 pm. on Saturdays. Everyone is also invited for a time of food & fellowship at noon before the seminar begins. Simply bring a sack lunch or covered dish and participate in a time to get to know each other. A beverage will be provided.

Everyone from the area is invited to come, whether you attend a church or not. During the small group session, men and women meet separately. For any additional information, feel free to contact the program director, Glenn Wilson (919) 397-4997

COUNSELING

We understand that there are times in life when you just need a helping hand.  Many people are doing very well in some parts of their lives while struggling in others.  Now might be a time when you need someone to come alongside you to encourage you.  At Faith, we use the Bible and the principles of Biblical Counseling, which seeks to carefully discover areas where a Christian may be unaware of, or disobedient to, the commands of Scripture and then seeks to help him/her learn how to lovingly submit to God’s will.

Is there any hope for this to work?

We believe that God has given us all we need to know Him and to live in a way that is pleasing to Him.  All our difficulties may not evaporate, but there is hope and help when a person willingly submits to God’s instructions and clings to His promises.  Hope and help does not come from studying ‘man’.  It comes from the healing truths of God’s Word with a focus rooted in the firm understanding of 2 Timothy 3:16: “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.”

Who Can Make An Appointment?

First priority will be given to members of Faith Baptist Church who desire biblical counseling.  Second priority will be given to people who are regular attendees of Faith.  Finally, as openings are available, people from churches other than Faith Baptist will be considered.

What Is Expected Of The Counselee?

The counselee must demonstrate a willingness to:

  • Sign the Consent to Biblical Counseling form provided in your initial session.
  • Agree to place yourself under the authority of the Elders of Faith Baptist Church.
  • Regularly attend Sunday services at Faith Baptist.
  • Complete any assigned homework prior to the counseling appointment (Assignments may include reading materials, listening cassettes, worksheets, and Scripture memory/ meditation).  The counselor reserves the right to discontinue any counseling if the counselee refuses to complete homework assignments.
  • Arrive on time for each appointment and call ahead to reschedule when necessary.  (919) 556-3420, ext. 150.

Note: as a safe-guard, it is our desire that the pastor and other male counselors not meet alone with women for counseling.  For this reason, female counselees who make an appointment with our pastors or other male counselors must be accompanied by one other person willing to sit in during the counseling sessions (a spouse, parent, friend, etc.)
