We, Encounters likes to think outside of the box. We recognize it is about relationship rather than the religion. We need to find meaningful ways to develop a relationship with our Higher Power or God, and that is where the life altering skills comes in. All of our practices and teaching are Bible based, as well as our clinicians.
