Through the counseling relationship, God has given a means of grace and wisdom for the transforming of His people into His image “from one degree of glory to another” (2 Corinthians 3:18), and for the common good of all (Galatians 6:10). Adam is an elder at Covenant Baptist Church in Denton, Texas, where he and his wife worship as members and attend with their three children.
