"Engaging your story is the single most important thing you can do to experience healing and freedom.” Adam Young.
Are you ready to explore your past, transform your present, and look to the future with hope?
This is a class devoted to building deeper understanding and respect in every relationship. Many of us are stuck in frustration, misunderstanding or conflict when it comes to communicating what we think, feel or want. Listening for Heaven’s Sake for Couples is for partners who want to learn to be genuinely caring and compassionate with each other, and everyone they meet without becoming anxious or overly involved.
Grace is nothing if not relational. So why don't we see it more? The chasm between grace believed and grace lived may result from a faulty definition of the word. In Becoming a Face of Grace, Ed Khouri explains that grace means so much more than forgiveness of sins or "unmerited favor." It actually serves as the basis of how we attach to God and others.
Joy … we think we know what it is, but do we? Is it just a nice, happy feeling?
From the moment we’re born we search for it – the welcoming smiles of people's faces lighting up communicating “I’m so glad to be with you”. When shared, this produces strong, secure bonds and loving relationships. Where there is joy, unforced transformation happens.
One of three modules in the Life Model course series, Restarting is a solution-based approach for building joy, receiving inner healing, and developing life-giving relationships. Restarting offers hope for those who have tried other approaches and still feel hurt, empty, alone, or ashamed of their struggle.

Amy leads us through common blockages to a fresh perspective that will engage and inspire. Through readings, exercises, and time with Immanuel, we will learn what brain science teaches on the spiritually transforming power of creativity.

“Suffering is a defining reality of life. Yet so many of us are so focused on avoiding discomfort that we’ve never learned how to actually suffer. But what if we could move from anxiety to durable hope?”
In The Deepest Place, Thompson invites us to explore how the Apostle Paul’s experience of love, secure attachment, and the deeply felt sense of God’s abiding presence carried him through the challenges he faced—and how it can help us not just survive, but flourish in the presence of suffering.” (from the back cover)
We will read together Curt Thompson’s book The Deepest Place: Suffering and the Formation of Hope.

Reverberation
Prepare your heart this Christmas season through a weekly
advent experience in two parts. In our first hour we will engage in
spiritual practices such as Lectio Divina and Immanuel Prayer,
music, and readings. In our second hour we will create an artistic
response to our engagement with God in the first hour. This
response might be a drawing, coloring, poem, collage, or another
artistic expression – it’s up to you. No artistic ability required.
Come for just the first hour or stay and enjoy being in community
as you create. Join us every week or drop in when you can. We
realize the Christmas season is a busy time of year and full of
commitments. Give yourself permission to participate in grace.
