Crossing Jordan is a Christ centered ministry that was started in 2018. We provide biblically based counseling that seeks to provide spiritual mentoring and direction, healing, and freedom from spiritual oppression. We are ordained ministers of the Gospel (Harvest Network International) with over 25 years of experience in this type of ministry. We received our training through Freedom Thru Jesus Fellowship (FTJF) and we are excited to once again be a part of that ministry.

This ministry is based on prayer and operates through the presence and power of the Lord Jesus Christ and the anointing, gifts and leading of the Holy Spirit. We adhere to the highest ethical standards of Christian integrity and we are committed to providing excellence in ministry by submitting to the spiritual authority of mature Christians, continually studying the Holy Scriptures and following biblical principles in our own lives and in our spiritual walk. We take part in continuing education in the areas of inner-healing, spiritual warfare, spiritual mentoring and christian counseling. We do not hold mental health credentials and we are not licensed as such, but whenever possible, we have and continue to work in conjunction with other healing and health professionals to provide for every aspect of a person's freedom and healing.

Since we do not hold mental health credentials we cannot bill insurance companies, so each person is responsible for the reasonable cost of their session. God's Word does tell us that a laborer is worthy of his wages. At the same time, because Crossing Jordan is a ministry, we do not turn anyone away because of financial burdens. In these cases we accept a reduced donation and in special cases no fee is required. God has called us into this ministry in a full-time capacity and we trust that He will provide for our needs. He has and continues to provide partners that help support this ministry and we are always looking for more supporters. In many ways it is our supporters that become the “insurance company”. They too become Jesus' hands and feet.

This ministry follows the biblical dictates to bear one another′s burdens, disciple those in need of guidance, comfort and heal the wounded hearts, and set free those who are spiritually bound or oppressed. The essential components of this ministry are prayer, prayer for healing, freedom from spiritual oppression, spiritual mentoring and direction all under the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit. Ministry to the person is also a process for building joy in the person, giving them strength to go on. The whole person is taken into consideration; spirit, soul, heart, and body. Spiritual healing is as important as emotional and physical healing.

Ministry consists of providing a safe place in which to discover the root of the individual′s issues. Then, with the Holy Spirit′s direction, revelation, and guidance, we explore these root causes and their impact on the individual and thus find direction in praying for them. This leads to finding a place for God to intervene in their lives and an opportunity for them to interact with God. Sound spiritual direction and biblical principles are applied together with prayer for God′s healing. With spiritual direction, each individual will be taught how to apply effective spiritual interventions and use proper biblical principles in his or her life′s situation for their healing process.

We also recognize as we explore these root causes that spiritual torment and strongholds may have been opened in the individual′s life. As God interacts and speaks encouragement and truth about the lies, false beliefs and anger, it becomes possible for healing to take place and strongholds are broken. At this point, these spiritual influences have no right to torment the individual and are simply told to leave. After this the individual generally will experience peace and joy. 

Life brings hurt and that is a simple fact of life. It can be traumatic and have a profound impact on their life and it can be the "normal" hurts that most experienced in life.
