New Horizons Institute of Counseling is an outreach ministry of the United Brethren In Christ Church, 560 Flomich Street, Holly Hill, Florida. The Senior Pastor is Rev. Chuck McKeown. Dr. Pierre J. Samaan, is the Director of Counseling for this church ministry. The counseling center is located in an office building away from the church to allow those of different faiths to feel comfortable utilizing the Christian counseling services.

This Christian counseling ministry is founded on Christ-centered recovery. The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord To comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair The counsel of the Lord will stand forever. (Luke 4:18-19; Isaiah 61:1-3; Psalm 33:11)

STATEMENT OF FAITH AND BELIEF
As a professional Christian Counseling ministry organization, we set forth the following beliefs, which have been agreed to by the professional, clerical and support staff of New Horizons Institute of Counseling United Brethren Counseling Ministry. These beliefs are essential to our treatment modality, theology, ministry and philosophy.

We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, inerrant, authoritative Word of God.
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in threepersons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
He has revealed Himself in creation, history, and in JesusChrist.
We believe in Gods creation of the world and humankind and inhumanitys rebellion and subsequent depravity.
We believe in the person and work of Jesus Christ, including His deity, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His true humanity, His miracles, His substitutionary death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to heaven where He sits at the right hand of the Father, and in His coming personal return in power and in glory.
We believe that for the salvation of the lost, sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. We believe that salvation is by grace through faith in Christ as ones Savior.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whoseindwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life and to grow in the knowledge of God and Christian obedience.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost 29And they shall come out--those who have practiced doing good [will come out] to the resurrection of [new] life, and those who have done evil will be raised for judgment [raised to meet their sentence]. (John 5:29 AMP)
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord JesusChrist and in the importance of the church for worship, service, and missions.
We believe in the sanctity of life and do not believe in abortion.
We believe in the importance of marriage. Specifically, that marriage is a covenant relationship between a man and a woman (Genesis 2:24), and that a persons sex (male or female) is determined by God in the womb (Psalm 139:13) and revealed at birth.
We further believe that marriage is a covenant relationship that is mirrored in the relationship between Christ and His Church (Revelation 19:7, 21:2, 21:9). And although the Bible states that divorce is permissible in two unusual circumstances (adultery as described in Matthew 5:31, and abandonment of a Christian by a non-Christian as described in I Corinthians 7:15), we will do all we can to preserve marriage.
We believe that all psychological principles should be thoroughly evaluated through the grid of Scripture, and that Scripture always holds the final authority.
