What do you mean by “prophetic”?
That we pray about your situation and tell you plainly what we believe we hear — and just as plainly when we hear nothing. No theatrics, no pressure, nothing you are asked to accept because we said it. You test everything against scripture, your own conscience, and wise people already in your life. Prophetic counsel here informs your decision; it never replaces your judgment or your responsibility for the outcome.
Is this therapy, coaching, or pastoral care?
None of the three, exactly. It is private counsel: strategic advisory and spiritual counsel in the same conversation. It is not clinical treatment and we do not diagnose. If what you are describing needs a licensed clinician, a lawyer, or a physician, we will say so in the first conversation and help you get there — then keep working alongside them if you want us to.
Do I have to be a Christian for this to be useful?
The counsel is explicitly Christian in its framework — prayer and intercession are the substance of it, not an add-on. You do not need to be certain, current, or in good standing. A number of clients arrive angry at God, or unable to pray at all, and hand that over as the first request. What we do ask is that you are not opposed to being prayed for.
Who actually reads my prayer requests?
The principal reads everything. Intercessors receive a de-identified version — the need, without your name, company, city, or any detail that could identify you. Intercessors are vetted, under written confidentiality, and never learn who they are praying for. If a need is too specific to de-identify safely, it stays with the principal and is not distributed.
What happens when a crisis will not wait a month?
You use the line. Every request is read the day it arrives and triaged: written counsel, a call, or an immediate window depending on what it is. Inner Circle and Household engagements include crisis calls scheduled inside 24 hours, and Household engagements carry a direct number.
Can my spouse be part of this?
Often, and often it is the turn that matters. Inner Circle includes a quarterly session with your spouse; Household & Legacy includes monthly counsel for them in their own right, with their own confidentiality. We do not carry information between two people who have not agreed we can.
How is this confidential when my calendar is not?
Sessions appear under a neutral name of your choosing. Invoicing and correspondence route to a private address, not your company domain. No one on your team needs to know this exists, and we do not send anything that would tell them.
What if it turns out not to be a fit?
The discovery conversation exists to find that out before money changes hands, and about half of applications end there. After that, engagements run in six-month terms; if it is wrong, say so and we will close it cleanly and refer you onward. No one has ever had to argue their way out.
