Book: The Judeo-Christian Model of Peacemaking

Introduction

Greetings. My name is Dr. Ken Newberger.  I hold a Ph.D. in Conflict Analysis & Resolution from Nova Southeastern University and a Master of Theology from Dallas Theological Seminary.  I am the author of Hope in the Face of Conflict: Making Peace with Others the Way God Makes Peace with Us
For more than twenty-five years, I have helped congregations and couples move from conflict toward peace, from hurt toward healing, and from distance toward genuine connection.  I have mediated conflicts within church boards, staff teams, and congregations, and have worked with more than 500 couples.  My overall approach combines a solid biblical foundation with the best of modern research.
If you are struggling in your marriage, there is hope.  Learn more  about how I can help you find your way back to each other.

A Word About Christian Marriage Counseling

Christian marriage counseling integrates the truths of Scripture with proven principles of conflict resolution and relational healing. Rather than treating faith as irrelevant — or avoiding it altogether — Christian counseling views your faith as a powerful resource for restoring your marriage.

My approach is grounded in the Judeo-Christian model of peacemaking, that is, learning to make peace with others the way God makes peace with us. This model applies wherever conflict exists — including between husbands and wives. This is not merely theological theory. It is a practical process that works. In marriage, it helps couples:

  • Break destructive cycles of conflict, withdrawal, and resentment
  • Communicate with greater honesty, sensitivity, and compassion
  • Rebuild trust after a lack of transparency, dishonesty, or relational distance
  • Restore emotional, spiritual, and physical intimacy
  • Develop a shared vision for the marriage God intended
The result is not just fewer arguments — it’s a stronger, more connected marriage than you may have thought possible. 
Toward this end, I offer couples in Herndon and the surrounding areas a faith-based, goal-oriented approach to marriage counseling. My approach is grounded in biblical principles and conflict resolution research.

About Herndon VA

marriage counseling Herndon VA

Herndon:  Neighborhoodscout.com describes the town this way:  "Herndon is a medium-sized town located in the state of Virginia. With a population of 24,601 people and 20 constituent neighborhoods, Herndon is the 39th largest community in Virginia. Herndon home prices are not only among the most expensive in Virginia, but Herndon real estate also consistently ranks among the most expensive in America.

"Unlike some towns where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Herndon is neither predominantly one nor the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs.... For the size of the town, public transportation in Herndon is quite heavily used. Mostly, people who use it for their daily commute are taking the bus. For Herndon, the benefits are reduced air pollution and congestion on the highways....

"Herndon is an extremely ethnically-diverse town. The people who call Herndon home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups."

The town of Herndon's website says this: "Whether you are visiting for pleasure or business, you will enjoy the small town charm of this pre-Civil War town and the many attractions we offer. Located in western Fairfax County, Herndon is just 22 miles from downtown Washington, DC. We are just minutes from Washington Dulles International Airport and Herndon is the closest town to the National Air and Space Museum's Stephen F. Udvar-Hazy Center. With many hotels offering shuttle service to the museum and with express bus to Metrorail into Washington, you can stay in Herndon and still be close to it all.... Packed with outstanding recreational activities, the award-winning Herndon Community Center offers many programs and events. Enjoy the town's 11 parks or take a hike on the W&OD Trail, which runs through the heart of downtown Herndon."

One resident commented, "Herndon is such a diverse, and cultural area in Virginia and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. It's not too busy or crowded but there's always something fun to do around town! As well as fun activities and places to go, there is always something going on in the community to get involved in such as food drive or volunteering to help at the Herndon Goodwill. Herndon has a great recreational set up ranging from five star soccer and baseball fields to astounding and well architected playgrounds! Herndon is an amazing destination and I hope everyone can come visit and experience what it's like in the little town of Herndon."

Herndon VA is a great place to live, work, and visit. This does not mean that the community is free from the stresses and strains that plague marriages all over the country. Dr. Newberger offers a cutting-edge alternative to traditional marriage counseling for Herndon couples.
