About Us

Telos comes from a Greek word that points toward the final goal or end to which men and women are called to live. Our conviction is that the Word of God-commonly called the Holy Bible-is the revealed Word of God and provides the answers and guidance to the questions and issues of everyday life. Telos Biblical Counseling exists to help the weary and the lost. We would love to sit down with you, hear what troubles you and show you how Jesus Christ offers healing, redemption and restoration to these afflictions.

Vision

Our vision at Telos Biblical Counseling is to see the people of the Quad Cities transformed through the personal ministry of the Word of God. We desire to see those in our community come under the Lordship of Jesus Christ and to see freedom and redemption brought to their struggles. It is our conviction that through this effort we will see flourishing individuals, renewed families, and a joyful community spread throughout the QCA and beyond.

Core Guiding Beliefs

  1. In accord with the historic Church, we affirm the Apostle’s Creed (2nd Century), the Nicene Creed (381AD) and the Definition of Chalcedon (451AD)

  2. We believe that the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, infallible, authoritative and fully sufficient Word of God.

  3. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

  4. We believe in the full deity and historical personhood of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His bodily return in power and glory.

  5. We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

  6. We believe that a person becomes justified by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

  7. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is progressively sanctified and finally glorified and that Biblical Counseling is a natural extension of this work.

  8. We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved unto the resurrection of life, and the lost unto the resurrection of death, Hell, and the grave.

  9. We believe in the spiritual unity of the Church in our Lord Jesus Christ and that we are called to live this unity out wherever and whenever possible.
