Why I Became a Professional Christian Therapist
Jesus said in John 10:10 "The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows) Amplified Bible Version. I became a Professional Christian Counselor to help Christians renew their mind and resolve the issues of their past so that they can enjoy the abundant life that Christ afforded them through his death and resurrection.
