Our counselling ministry is dedicated to providing Christ-centered, compassionate, and practical guidance for individuals, couples, and families navigating the complexities of life.
Our Mission: Hope, Healing, and Wholeness
Our mission is to help people experience hope, healing, and personal transformation through the sufficient truth of God’s Word.

Based on our church’s mission and pastoral structure, following are the key aspects of our counseling ministry:
Holistic Biblical Counseling
The church follows a model that seeks to apply the Gospel to practical, real-world problems.
Christ-Centered View
We view human life through the lens of Scripture, emphasizing that true healing and strength come from a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
Integrated Approach
While the foundation is the Bible, our counseling recognizes the physical, developmental, and social factors that contribute to a person’s struggles.
Discipleship Culture
Counseling is often viewed as an extension of discipleship; it is not treated as a separate, clinical appointment but as a core part of a person’s spiritual growth. When counseling is viewed as an extension of discipleship, it shifts from problem solving to life-patterning.
Mount Tabor Church provides counseling that is deeply integrated into their ministry of “discipleship and restoration.” While the church offers several specialized programs, the best way to access these services is through their central administrative office.
1. Contact Information
You can reach the church directly to inquire about scheduling a counseling session or to find out which specific ministers are currently leading their family programs.

2. Marriage and Family Programs
Mount Tabor places a heavy emphasis on the family unit. Their counseling services for couples and families typically include:
- Pre-Marital Counseling: A mandatory requirement for couples wishing to be married at Mount Tabor, focusing on biblical foundations for communication, finance, and spiritual unity.
- Marital & Relationship Counseling: Support for couples navigating challenges, often facilitated by the pastoral team or trained elders.
- Parental Guidance: Specialized mentoring for parents, including past initiatives like the “Commission on Evangelism,” which has historically supported teen parents and single-mother households.
