Simple websearches connects this to Groundwire and Champion Ministries, which have a minimal footprint considering their websites. So this smacks of being a false front to hide the identities of its benefactors, much the way the whole He Gets Us campaign.
So approach cautiously.
That said, the statement of faith of Champion is more interested in getting you onboard with Christianity so you can die with a saved soul, than the survive-then-thrive model that is typical of services that use psychological models (first get you out of crisis, then get you to where you can make life choices, than facilitate those choices towards a functional life).
This is to say I wouldn’t actually trust its counseling to actually be useful to callers anymore than a priest at the side of a critical patient. (Comforting if the guy is already a Christian, detrimental if otherwise. I have to explain my jokes.)
