We walk into the muck with you...
and stay until the ground is solid again
He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the muck and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see (what He has done in me) and fear the Lord and put their trust in him.
- Psalm 40:2-3
An Invitation to Do the Hard Work:
This counseling is for those who are ready to get back into the fight.
-
For leaders who know God has more for them, but feel weighed down by the muck that has clouded their discernment or weakened their resolve.
-
For veterans and first responders who understand duty, sacrifice, and vigilance—and who are ready to reconcile their faith and face the hard questions so they can stand again with clarity and strength.
-
For mothers and fathers who have lost their edge, grown weary, or realized they’ve been wading through the mud longer than they ever intended.
-
For believers who are tired of surviving in the trenches and are ready to plant their feet once more on solid ground.
This is not surface-level encouragement. It is Scripture-centered counseling grounded in the conviction that peace comes through disciplined obedience to God’s Word, and healing comes through truth. Discipline here is not punishment or rigidity—it is loving alignment with what God has already spoken, even when that obedience requires courage, humility, and perseverance.
Together, we examine what has entangled you—patterns of thinking, unaddressed wounds, misplaced fears, or quiet compromises. Through careful application of Scripture, we practice obedience that restores order to the heart and clarity to the mind. As obedience takes root, peace follows. As truth is received and lived out, healing begins.
The aim is not simply relief from discomfort, but restoration of calling. Not just healing from the past, but readiness for what God is asking of you now.
This is counseling that pulls you out of the trenches of spiritual warfare and places your feet firmly on solid ground—so you can move forward with steadiness and strength, ready to engage again in the work of the Kingdom of God with conviction, clarity, and faithfulness.

ABOUT MUCK & MIRE
Peace through discipline. Healing through truth.
Asking for help isn’t a weakness. It’s where strength begins.
What We Believe About Change
At the heart of this counseling is a simple, biblical conviction:
Peace comes through disciplined obedience to God’s Word. Healing comes through truth.
Discipline is not punishment; it is loving alignment with what God has already spoken. When we order our lives according to His truth, peace follows. When truth replaces distortion, healing begins.
This counseling invites you to slow down, examine your life honestly, and bring your thoughts, habits, and patterns under the authority of Scripture—trusting that God’s ways lead to freedom
What Counseling Looks Like Here

-
Examine your thoughts and decisions in the light of God’s Word
-
Practice disciplined obedience that restores order to the heart and clarity to the mind
-
Apply biblical truth to real-life struggles with wisdom and care
This is a space for challenge and encouragement, correction and compassion—always anchored in the authority and sufficiency of Scripture.
The Goal of Counseling
The goal is not simply relief from discomfort.
It is restoration.
It is readiness.
It is renewed obedience and strength for the work God has set before you.
This counseling aims to pull you out of the trenches of spiritual warfare and place your feet firmly on solid ground, so you can move forward with conviction, clarity, and faithfulness, ready to serve the Kingdom of God where He has called you.
ARE YOU READY?
Healing is hard. Anyone who tells you otherwise is not giving it to you straight. There are no easy days when it comes to confronting our own habits, thoughts, and inner demons. Healing requires discipline and a willingness to engage with the things we typically run away from.
WHO THIS COUNSELING IS FOR...
This counseling is for individuals who are ready to engage honestly with God’s Word and do the work obedience requires.
It is for:
-
Leaders who know God is calling them forward and are ready to remove what has been holding them back
-
Veterans and First Responders who understand duty, sacrifice, and vigilance, and who are ready to reconcile their faith and face the hard questions so they can stand again with clarity and strength.
-
Mothers and fathers who desire renewed strength, clarity, and spiritual steadiness
-
Believers who want peace through obedience, not avoidance
-
Those willing to examine their lives in the light of Scripture
-
Individuals ready to be challenged, encouraged, and restored
WHO THIS COUNSELING IS NOT FOR...
This counseling may not be a good fit for those who are not ready to submit to Scripture as the authority for life and change.
Healing is hard. Anyone who tells you otherwise is not giving it to you straight. There are no easy days when it comes to confronting our own habits, thoughts, and inner demons. Healing requires discipline and a willingness to engage with the things we typically run away from.
Therefore, this program is not for:
-
Those seeking affirmation without examination
-
Those unwilling or unable to confront hard truths
-
Individuals looking for quick fixes without disciplined obedience
-
Those who want comfort without responsibility for growth
This space is not about staying comfortable;
It is about being formed.
