Though pain is a part of life, there is always hope in Jesus Christ. Call today to find out how our counseling ministry can help you and your loved ones experience peace and hope again.

Pain is an inevitable part of life.

All of us will experience hurt and sadness. Yet, some will continue to stay “stuck” in an emotion which causes our heart and home to deteriorate. No one has a complete understanding of why a person is subjected to suffering, but we do know there is hope. We are assured of a Heavenly Father who provides tools to help cope more effectively and grace to carry us when we are about to fall apart. At the Pensacola Bay Baptist Association we are blessed to be an instrument in helping people find hope.

We are dedicated to providing professional Christian Counseling. Our therapists are Christians who have the academic training to provide professional therapy. We are personally committed to Jesus Christ as our Lord. We believe in the healing power of God's love, the authority of scripture, and the worth of the individual. We believe Jesus Christ came so we may have abundant life.

Through the conviction of the Holy Spirit, the Pensacola Bay Baptist Association has been led to offer a sliding fee scale to make counseling available and affordable to everyone in our community.
