About Christian Peer Resources
Everyone has a worldview. This worldview shapes the way people respond to the various circumstances of life. For Christians, their worldview is shaped by their shared faith in Jesus Christ and their belief that the Bible is the authoritative, inerrant, and sufficient word of God (Matthew 4:4; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21; Hebrews 4:12). Like anyone else, Christians face various struggles and desire to change certain aspects of their lives. Unlike many people however, the goal of personal change in a Christian’s life is not temporal happiness or comfort. Rather, the goal of personal transformation for believers is to become more like Jesus so that God would be honored (Matthew 5:16; Colossians 1:28; 1 Corinthians 10:31; Ephesians 4:22–24; 1 John 2:6; Revelation 4:11; 1 Peter 4:11). Christian Peer Resources (CPR) understands that this is a very different way of thinking when compared to the rest of today’s culture. This is the very reason CPR exists, however! Since Christians view the world from a unique perspective—depending on the Bible and their relationship with Jesus Christ to help them navigate through life—they need resources that will help them to face life’s challenges that align with their own worldview. Christian Peer Resources is a ministry which seeks to offer such help to firefighters and their families.
Our Contributors
Christian Peer Resources is a ministry focused on helping firefighters become more productive, stable, and spiritually mature individuals both on and off duty. Resources promoted at CPR do not come from trained or licensed psychotherapists or mental health professionals. Rather, our contributors believe in the sufficiency and authority of the Bible to direct all people’s lives. Therefore, they seek to point people to God and His inerrant word to help them navigate life’s difficulties and blessings in ways that please Him.
Our contributors also recognize the importance of the local church in providing long-term counsel and care to all believers (1 Peter 5:14; Hebrews 13:17). For this reason, our contributors aim to help firefighters understand how vital it is to seek the care and counsel of the leadership of their own local churches. Therefore, Christian Peer Resources desires to help firefighters find healthy local churches near them that are committed to the shepherding standards set forth in the Bible. Ultimately, it is the goal of Christian Peer Resources to guide firefighters toward a wholehearted faith in Jesus Christ, a healthy reliance upon His sufficient word, and the long-term, sustainable care of healthy local churches.
