Biblical Counseling
Do you have marriage or family problems, anxiety or depression? You don’t know where to go? Christ Community Church offers Biblical counseling; Things are going well, but want to improve your relationships with others? Biblical counseling can help you too.
Biblical counseling is pastoral counseling. You have the option to come to one or two sessions to find out how it is before making a commitment.
Biblical counseling is a service of Christ Community Church and it is free of charge.
Biblical counseling consists in giving advice from the Scriptures and the practical application to each individual.
We are confident that the Bible has all we need to live a righteous life and there are no problems among people that the Bible doesn’t address in general or specific principles.
For an appointment call (847) 746 1411. For Spanish ask for Pastor Eliel Rojas.

Doctrinal Statement
- We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible, authoritative Word of God, and our rule for faith and practice.
- We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in his virgin birth, in his sinless life, in his miracles, in his vicarious and atoning death through his shed blood, in his bodily resurrection, in his ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in his personal return in power and glory.
- We believe that the salvation of lost and sinful man is only by the grace of God through faith in Christ alone, and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
- We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
- We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of eternal life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of eternal punishment.
- We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
- We believe that Christ commanded two ordinances to be observed by the Church until Christ returns: water baptism and the Lord’s Supper, both open to all believers.
- We believe there are infinite resources in Jesus Christ to heal physically and emotionally, so we affirm God’s healing grace.
“The purpose of Christ Community Church is to make known and promote the worship of God in obedience to the Great Commission and the Great Commandments.” (Matthew 28:18-20, 22:34-40).
Reverent Affection for God:
We envision well-conceived, Spirit-filled corporate worship marked by reverent affection for the living God.
A Center for the Arts:
We see our church as a center for the arts, enriching the wider body of Christ through God glorifying music and drama.
Strategic Investment in Disciple-Making:
We see eager people strategically investing a steady stream of resources into making disciples wherever we’re positioned to make a difference.
Christian Minds in the Making:
We see a preaching, teaching, reading, learning church–Christian minds in the making.
The Welcoming Love of God:
We see open hearts and open arms extending, to members and guests alike, the welcoming love of God in our multi-ethnic community.
