Lead Pastor, Connect Church Algiers

Praying with and offering biblical counseling to members of my local church is one of the joys of pastoring. However, having solid Biblical resources to equip members can pose a challenge. Christ Life Resources helps me bridge a follow-up gap with those I serve. Searching for a topic quickly and having a pdf printout and extra resources has proven invaluable in my ministry work. Whether I am meeting with couples or those in need of encouragement, offering solid and practical guides to equip them on their growth in Christ has enabled me to be a more effective shepherd and help them grow in their faith.

Co-Owner of Rooted Life Counseling Center

“Christ Life Resources provides a deep well of biblical truth. The information is organized in a way to help hurting and wondering people find God’s will, truth, and design for the abundant life. As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I’m grateful to have a trustworthy place to direct family, friends, and clients. The material can be easily understood and applied thanks to the hard work of God’s people in designing the site and materials. Praise God for His truth!”

Former Senior Pastor, Sherwood Baptist Church

"I am overjoyed to recommend Christ Life Resources from my dear friend Paul Gotthardt. Paul has done an incredible job gathering resources for the believer's spiritual, emotional, and relational well-being. Centered on the Word of God and the sufficiency of Christ, these are not gimmicks or worldly philosophy. I would wholeheartedly recommend Christ Life Resources to any pastor, leader, or believer looking for Biblical answers to life issues. Whether you're taking your first steps with Jesus or you've been walking with Him for many years, these tools will prove to be invaluable on your journey."

Missions Advocate and Mobilizer with Commission to Every Nation

“It is vital to spend time in the Word of God to know and live for the Living Word, our Lord Jesus Christ. Christ Life Resources will assist you in knowing and serving Jesus, our wonderful Savior and Lord. May His name be praised!”

Co-Owner of Rooted Life Counseling Center

“Christ Life Resources is an excellent source of unchanging truth. As a marriage and family therapist, I am grateful to have a place to send people who are looking for concise help in their time of need. This site provides God’s authoritative truth organized in a way that is clear and easy to share. In a world full of constantly changing information, Christ Life Resources tunes thoughts and minds back to God’s living word and His wonderful design for our lives.”

Vice President for Global Leadership, Campus Crusade for Christ

"It is important for followers of Christ to know the Word of God. However, this knowledge will not bring Christ-like life changes unless we also learn the skills for the appropriate application of God's Truth to life's opportunities and challenges. Christ Life Resources provides one venue for how God's Truth should be applied for daily life, leadership, and service effectiveness. I am personally grateful to Christ Life Resources."

Executive Director, Alpha Pregnancy Center

“When a woman comes to one of our centers, she rarely comes with only one concern. Many times she is dealing with multiple difficult situations and carrying many heavy burdens. Christ Life Resources provides a way for us to give a woman (or man) in a difficult situation godly, biblical wisdom that is concise and easy to read. This resource is a helpful reference for our team to recommend or share when talking with someone on the phone, providing a handout as a follow-up to conversation, or as an encouragement and devotional starter for our small group classes. It is encouraging to me to have a reference available that I know is rooted in Scripture and is directed at meeting the practical spiritual and emotional needs of our clients with sound Biblical teaching.”

Founder of Living in the Word Publications, Former President of Southern Baptist Convention and IMB

"Practical, Christ-centered and available now...these are words that immediately come to mind when seeking to describe Christ Life Resources. I am unaware of any other ministry more keenly focused on a New Testament approach to developing healthy faith and strong relationships. Utilizing a biblical approach to counseling through discipleship will make this the very ministry for which so many have long been seeking."

Senior Pastor, The Crossing Church

"I have been a pastor for over 30 years and have had hundreds of conversations with people who love Jesus but are battling an issue or a struggle that keeps them from being free in Christ. Christ Life Resources is that discipleship tool to help followers of Jesus find hope and healing from these issues that they’ve been afraid to talk about. I believe this resource will be a significant step in helping people fully follow Jesus."

Founder & President of Give Me That Book Ministries

"All true followers of Jesus Christ come to His Word with this prayer of the psalmist: “Let me understand the teaching of your precepts, then I will meditate upon your wonders” (Psalm 119:27). One of the ways that God answers prayer is by gifting some of His disciples with the desire, discipline, and devotion to dig deep into the Scriptures, God’s goldmine of truth. And, when they emerge from their studies, their writings display precious promises and powerful principles from the One who speaks in His Book. Working my way through Christ Life Resources, I found nuggets at every click. Wow! I thank God for the vision and the hard work of the leaders who made this valuable resource available to all of us who love Jesus and hunger to understand His precepts and meditate upon His wonders."

Head of School at Heritage Christian School

“The landscape of teaching has changed tremendously in the 21st century, especially following the COVID-19 Pandemic. Students bring more personal needs and issues with them to school than ever before. Educators across the country are being called on to minister to the social, emotional, and spiritual needs of students if they are ever going to be able to fully prepare their students academically for God’s unique call on their lives. The contributors of Christ Life Resources have given teachers and administrators valuable tools and wisdom to address these needs in an effort to help students flourish. I highly recommend this site to all educators who seek wholeness in their students.”

Discipleship Pastor, Life Baptist Church

“I highly recommend Christ Life Resources. It serves believers both in ministry endeavors and in personal intimacy with Christ. Going from one counseling appointment to the next can be time-consuming (in the preparation alone). Christ Life Resources provides one-page overviews with clear insights on topics for hurting people who need comfort, understanding, and encouragement in Christ. These articles also serve individuals going through everyday situations and unexpected ones by addressing the problem and not just the symptoms. This resource is truly for anyone who needs clarity on specific topics covering all aspects of healing and discipleship.”

Former Executive Director of Albany Biblical Counseling

“CLR has been helpful when accessing resources online, and we have developed a file that our counseling team can access immediately while counseling. It’s biblical and fills in the gap for needed content in areas of life that clients are dealing with. I see CLR as a very important tool in helping people grow and change. We will use the resources even more in the future.”

Pastor Wellness Catalyst; Georgia Baptist Mission Board

“In John 8:32, Jesus teaches that truth and freedom are inseparable: “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”‬‬ Christ Life Resources is an easy-to-use, Scripture packed, practical resource for the disciple and the disciple maker.”

Lead Pastor, Oasis Baptist Church

“It is an honor to endorse Christ Life Resources. Having been personally impacted by Pastor Paul’s heart of discipleship and living out the Christ life, I know these resources are more than an educational tool. They come with a heart to see men and woman of all ages and stages grow in their Christian life. I believe as leaders and friends attempt to walk alongside the ones they love, as believers strive to know God intimately, and as hurting people seek counsel—they will find comfort, encouragement and freedom from the resources here at CLR.”

The Hope Center Director, Connections and Local Missions Pastor, Sherwood Baptist Church

Christ Life Resources is a timeless collection of biblical truths that speak directly to the issues in our current society. From articles about personal relationships to growing in Christ, I have found this tool to be extremely useful in pointing people of all demographics to the Bible for answers. Whether you are serving as a Pastor, counselor, or lay member, Christ Life Resources is a wonderful biblical resource that is highly recommended.

KAA 1 Director, Kids Across America

Christ-Life Resources provides an extensive library of strong biblical teaching and insightful guides. Our setting at Kids Across America is unique because there are essentially two fields of ministry happening simultaneously. We seek to encourage, equip, and empower urban youth and their mentors through camping experiences and education on the gospel. We also seek to exhort and disciple the young adults who join our summer staff, this is the ministry within the ministry. A great majority of our summer staff are walking through what is arguably the most critical season of their life! (18-24) We desire to maximize our time with them and point them primarily to the full life available in Christ. CLR provides a great resource to further equip our staff as we seek to point the children we serve to Christ, but it also provides a great point of reference for our staff for when they return to their hometowns and campuses. Our discipleship model is to build Christian leaders and send them into the harvest, and CLR is a great tool in our efforts to do this.
