Twelve Stones - Christian Counseling & Spiritual Retreats

Discover the root of your struggle

Find Relief From Your Pain

Leave with Hope & a Plan for a Brighter Future

We all feel stuck at times.

Here are some things we commonly hear when people first come to Twelve Stones:

“Nothing is helping me overcome my struggles.”

“My spouse and I are on the brink of divorce.”

“No matter what I do, my childhood trauma keeps haunting me.”

“My spouse’s anger is hurting our family.”

“As missionaries, we’ve experienced a lot of pain we can’t overcome on our own.”

“I haven’t had a good day in a long time.”

“My child’s behavior is on a downward spiral.”

WE BELIEVE THERE’S A BRIGHTER SEASON TO COME.

You don’t have to stay alone in your struggle. We know the complexity of mental, emotional, or relational pain and understand how frustrating it is to feel trapped. God is the God of all seasons – even the winter. We want to help you through it.

Twelve Stones 3-day Intensive Biblical Counseling Retreats are a catalyst for change. They provide uninterrupted, guided time to identify the root cause of your struggle, create a clear, practical path forward, and reignite hope for your future.

Experience a turning point in your life.

Hear what they have to say about their experience

“We had such an amazing experience during our time here. Mark, our counselor, was truly a God send. His wisdom, combined with a level of compassion, made discussing difficult things joyful. God was really at work in this place.”

“This was an answered prayer. I felt the Lord minister to me personally through our counselor. Craig was very understanding and affirming when I shared some things that weren’t easy to share.”

“For the first time in a while, I feel hope.”

“My husband had never been to counseling and was a bit skeptical. Our counselor was able to speak the truth with grace, kindness, and HUMOR– which my husband and I both appreciated. We needed laughter and joy in our lives. I really am grateful for this ministry.”

“I had no idea how traumatic my childhood was and how dramatically it was impacting me until Twelve Stones. I realized I’ve been carrying an invisible backpack full of bricks my whole life – and I now know it’s possible to take it off. I feel like my life is just starting and I’m actually excited about it.”

“Our marriage has made a complete 180 since being home. Twelve Stones helped bring our marriage back to life.”

“I was told that Twelve Stones was a wonderful ministry, but I had no clue how the truth my family heard would be so deeply impactful. God’s grace is evident and He is doing an amazing work through this ministry.”

“God is truly at work at Twelve Stones; from the intimate setting to the deep spiritual truths discussed. God’s touch is everywhere. Our counselor was able to listen, assimilate, and clearly explain what our actions were saying about our true feelings toward God and each other. This is a truth we would never have come to on our own. I am encouraged and excited to continue learning and growing in the Word and in Christ.”

“During the past 3 days, we have had the most insightful counsel. I can’t really articulate my full gratitude for what our time meant. We are taking away so much truth from this experience and are forever changed. Everything the counselor shared lined up with God’s Word. God is using this facility and is working through the people here. ”

“I just wanted to say thank you for everything you have done for my Dad. Thank you for letting the Lord work through you to show him th Lord from a different perspective. I have seen a lot of change in my Dad. He was so excited to share what he learned in Indiana. And that not only blessed him but the whole entire family! I just love seeing, hearing and knowing my Dad is enjoying the Lord and wanting to spend more and more time with him. It makes me want to do the same.”

– Daughter of a counselee

“Thank you for praying for us and for all of the time and especially for laboring with us and pointing us so clearly to Jesus. We’ll be closer to Him as a result of our time at our retreat.”

– Missionary Family

“We had a lot of ups and downs over the past year, but our daughter is doing soooo well! She is at a healthy weight, and she just recently has been thinking she may want to go into Biblical counseling as a career choice! It is very exciting for us to see such growth in her and her desire to serve God with her life! Your ministry is so amazing, and God uses you so powerfully! Thank you for all you did for us!”

“Thank you for taking soul care so seriously. There are very few experiences that we would consider as powerful and profound in terms of eternal value as the Twelve Stones. There is no way we will ever be the same and the ripple effect of this grace and truth will reach to many generations. I feel this experience would be essential for any church leader. Thank you for loving us so well.”

– Church Leader

“God has been merciful and gracious to us through Twelve Stones. Our son is doing so well. I praise the Lord for bringing us through the valley and thank you for the part your ministry played in that journey.”

~ A letter from parents six months after attending a retreat

“I came here as an advocate for a friend, and just in the short two and a half days, I saw God work in mighty ways in her and her husband’s lives. . . Even as an advocate I feel like I’m taking home new principles and am leaving changed.”

“Many of my sheep have been given help and hope and then saw healing come through the Holy Spirit because of this ministry.”

~ Church Pastor in Indy

“I was so lost and broken, and my time here gave me hope and healing through the counsel of Scott and the transformation through God’s Word. I will never forget my time here.”
