Phone Helplines For When You Need Help!

These phone helplines are open 24 hours a day, just open your Bible and it is there!

Second, to prayer, one of the best ways to get problems resolved is to talk them out with someone who cares and knows some information on the topic of what you need.

The person to go to could be a best friend, parent, pastor, someone from church, or a Christian counselor. If none of these seem to be working out as well as you hoped, then try one or more of the phone helplines below if you need help in any one of these areas?

Now we’re e-mailing and tweeting and texting so much, a phone call comes as a fresh surprise. I get text messages on my cell phone all day long, and it warbles to alert me that someone has sent me a message on Facebook or a reply or direct message on Twitter, but it rarely ever rings. ~ Susan Orlean
