Grace Care and Counseling

Grace Counseling, Support Groups, and Congregational Care.

Grace Care & Counseling exists to provide biblical counseling, biblically based support groups, and congregational care to the body of Grace Baptist Church. Our mission is to demonstrate God’s grace and truth in tangible ways to the body. We accomplish this task through the following avenues: Grace Counseling, Grace Disability, Grace Care.

Grace Counseling

Grace Counseling is not merely aimed at helping individuals out of their difficult circumstances, nor is it focused on behavior modification. Rather, it is our goal to come alongside fellow believers as co-laborers in their circumstances and lives, and to help apply the word of God specifically (Ephesians 5:1-2, 1 Thessalonians 5:14).

Biblical Counseling is a formal and very focused expression of discipleship, and as such it is not considered professional therapy. Grace Counseling is offered at no charge. If you are interested in receiving help, please complete a counseling application and submit it to counseling@gracebaptist.org, or drop it off in our Care Department during regular office hours. For any further questions, please call the church at (661) 296-8737.

Currently, Grace Counseling is available for those who consider Grace Baptist their home church.

Grace Disability Ministry

Grace Disability finds its roots in a biblical view of humanity which says that every individual has inherent value, as every person is an image bearer of God (Genesis 1:26-31, Psalm 8:4-5). As such, we seek to serve those families in our church and in our valley who experience disability by enveloping them in Christ-like love. This is a love which places honor and dignity on them as fellow sufferers in the world, and is an expression of 1 Corinthians 12:22-25. The individuals and families who experience disability are indispensable to the purpose and goal of the church, and our aim is to support them as they live out their unique calling. This fall, we are launching a Mothers Experiencing Disability group as part of this ministry. For more information, please contact us at care@gracebaptist.org.
