“At the heart of Christ’s call to discipleship is the daily application of His cross in each life. Yet one seldom hears in evangelical circles Christ’s definitive declaration: “And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me…[and] forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple” (Luke 14:27-33). The call to discipleship must be honestly faced. Through the cross we die to self and begin to live to our Lord in resurrection power (Galatians 2:20). Indeed, Christ’s death on the cross would have been a hollow act if it did not bring forth new life, for now and for eternity.” Dave Hunt, An Urgent Call to a Serious Faith, P.87.

“Much of both psychological and biblical counseling focuses attention on people and their problems. The goal easily becomes solving the problem rather than spiritual growth and the center of attention becomes the person and the problem more than “Christ in you the hope of glory” (Col. 1:27).” Martin and Deidre Bobgan, Christ-Centered Ministry verses Problem-Centered Counseling, P.8.

“To the true Christian, the personality of the Holy Spirit is mor real than any theory that science has to offer, for so-called science is but mere calculation based on human observation and is constantly changing its inferences. But the existence of the Holy Spirit is, to the child of God, a matter of Scripture revelation and of actual experience.” D.L. Moody. Secret Power, P.12.

“In Christ-centered ministry the Bible verses used are primarily those that give the person a biblical perspective on trials, show how problems can be used for spiritual growth, and encourage a daily devotional life, whether or not the verses are directly related to the reason for which counseling is sought.” Martin and Deidre Bobgan. Person to Person Ministry, P.23
