Andrew's goal for counseling is to provide levity, depth and heart focused counsel that is rooted in the wisdom and understanding of scripture with the hope of reconciling people back to God and their neighbor. He believes people's only hope is through the gospel of Jesus Christ. He has a conviction to invite others to become more like Christ and aligning with God's heart and rhythm for life. His counsel relies on God's grace through the Holy Spirit to allow people to see their depravity and for their enormous need for a savior.
All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. (2 Corinthians 5:18-19 ESV)
