Meet the Counselors

Carrie Echols is a passionate advocate for healing and transformation in your spirit, soul, and body. Armed with a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Biblical Counseling, Carrie delves deep into the heart of restoration. Her journey is not just about degrees; it’s a testament to her commitment to guiding others toward a life of abundance and purpose.

Carrie offers a comprehensive framework for a deeper understanding of the abundant life referenced in John 10:10 (NIV): “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full,” and John 16:33 (NLT) “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”

In Carrie’s view, it’s not just about qualifications—it’s about restoration and the unwavering belief in the transformative power of Galatians 2:20 (NLT): “My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” Join her on a journey of spiritual growth and healing, where every step taken is a step closer to living a life truly abundant.

John Echols is dedicated to guiding others in spiritual transformation as referenced in 2 Corinthians 5:14b-17 (NLT) “…Since we believe that Christ died for all, we also believe that we have all died to our old life. He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live for themselves. Instead, they will live for Christ, who died and was raised for them. So we have stopped evaluating others from a human point of view. At one time we thought of Christ merely from a human point of view. How differently we know him now! This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!”

With a Bachelor’s in Ministry with a minor in Counseling and a Master’s in Leadership & Biblical Studies, John’s journey is fueled by a passion for guiding others toward their God-given potential.

In John’s view, education isn’t just a pursuit—it’s a pathway to healing in spirit, soul, and body. Join him on a transformative journey where faith, knowledge, and compassion converge to illuminate the path toward a life rich in purpose and fulfillment in Christ.

My wife and I were never taught how to have a marriage or be parents. Even through the many marriage seminars or books that we read, nothing really clicked. Working with John and Carrie Echols has allowed my wife and I to apply biblical principles scripturally within our marriage, in parenting our kids, and in teaching our kids how to have a Godly marriage and to raise their kids.

Counseling through Biblical Solutions has changed my life!
I see myself more how God sees me instead of how the world sees me. I am pointed back to Jesus time and time again and that’s the only way I have found a more peaceful and joyful life.

Biblical Solutions saved my life and my marriage. I met John and Carrie at what I would say was the lowest point in my life. Their ability to steward God’s love for me has helped me overcome past traumas in ways I would not have believed possible in my early 20s, and for that, I can not say thank you enough.

Although you don’t need to be a Christian to seek biblical counseling, it’s important to understand that our approach is rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For those who haven’t yet accepted Jesus as their Savior, our primary aim is to address their greatest need – their need for a Savior. Individuals can find peace with God through Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection. Once this foundational decision is made, they can begin to grow in their relationship with Christ and begin their journey toward true and lasting healing.

The Word of God

We believe the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God, inerrant in the original writings, complete as a revelation of God’s will for salvation and the supreme and final authority in faith and life. (2 Timothy 3:16-172 Peter 1:19-21)

The Trinity

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person is fully God, sharing the same nature and attributes. (Genesis 1:26Deuteronomy 6:4Matthew 3:16-1728:19-20)

God the Father

We believe in God the Father, an infinite, personal Spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power, and love. We believe He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men, hears and answers prayers, and saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ. (John 16:23-27Galatians 4:4-6Ephesians 1:317-23)

God the Son

We believe that Jesus Christ is God’s eternal Son. He is the true God and true man, conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. We also believe in His sinless life, substitutionary atonement, bodily resurrection from the dead, ascension into heaven, priestly intercession on behalf of His people, and personal, visible return from heaven. (Matthew 1:18-23Luke 24:1-8John 1:114Acts 1:112 Corinthians 5:19-21Hebrews 4:14-167:24-251 John 2:1; Rev 19, Rev 20)

God the Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit is a person and is fully God. He regenerates, baptizes into the body of Christ, indwells every believer, guides and empowers believers, and gives gifts to all believers to be used in ministry to fulfill the church’s mission on earth. (Matthew 28:19John 3:516:13Acts 1:85:3-41 Corinthians 6:111912:4-13Ephesians 3:164:1-16)

Man

We believe God created man, male and female, in the image of God and free from sin. We further believe that man, because of his fall in Adam, is a sinner by nature and choice and is, therefore, spiritually dead, in need of salvation. (Genesis 1:26-272:7-3:19Romans 3:23-245:12-216:23)

Salvation

We believe in salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. We further believe that this salvation is based upon the sovereign grace of God, was purchased by Christ on the cross, and is received by man through faith, apart from any human merit, works, or ritual. Salvation results in faithfulness to God, which allows Christians to conduct themselves in a manner that displays the life of the Lord Jesus in all their activities and relationships. (John 1:12-143:3-75:24John 13:34-35Galatians 2:20-21Ephesians 2:8-101 Timothy 2:5)
