New Hope and Freedom is about discovering the emancipation, hope and personal and interpersonal freedom Christ paid such a great price to provide at every level of life and living. It's more than about mental illness or mental health. It's about emancipated living...living free, the way God designed it to be, not bound by any internal, external, any past, present or future fears or thoughts, emotions, experience, behaviors, relationships, habits or addiction that has become a lord and master over a person, their relationships, their life. All is centered in Jesus Christ and His Word, applying professional psychological & practical tools to meet the real needs of the moment & prepare for the future.

My Christian Faith and My Professional Practice
Christian counselors and therapists are not only counselors who are themselves Christians, but professionals who, because of their calling, are thoroughly educated and committed to Christ and the Bible as well as counseling and psychology, much like a psychiatrist is a physician who is trained in both medicine and psychology.
Dr. Sprunger is the creator of "Emancipation Therapy" theoretical approach to Christian/Biblical Counseling. Ask him for more information. He came to trust Jesus Christ as his own personal Savior when he was a child. God called him to give his life to serve Him and others a couple years later. He was called and ordained to the Christian pastoral ministry in his early 20's. He has pastored and helped launch a number of independent Grace Brethren/Charis Fellowship churches in Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio and Delaware, and was involved in starting other churches in Arizona and California. He has been heavily involved in leadership of what has become known as the Christian Counseling movement. He has extensive education in Bible, Pastoral Ministry, Elementary Education, Biblical Greek and Counseling Psychology. He has earned BA, MA and PhD degrees and is honored with DD and LHD degrees.
