The Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Course is an 8-week course that explores 7 Biblical pathways to discipleship that lead to lives that are transformed by the Holy Spirit and flow over in love for those around us.  Though one of our deepest desires is to love well those closest to us, our emotional reactions often get in the way of being able to freely express that love.  EHS applies Scripture and gives tools to help us to express our emotions in a healthy way so that our emotions do not control our reactions to those that we love

Moving Past Your Past Workshop

Do you feel overly nervous when talking to certain people?  Do you find yourself angry and not understand why you are so angry?  Do you have private fears that keep you from trying important things in life?  Do you find yourself unable to lift yourself out of a certain sadness?

This  one-day intensive workshop Moving Past Your Past can help.  Dr. Jiji Harner will provide Biblical and psychological insights into how our emotions form and how they impact our current functioning.  We will then work in smaller groups to explore our own experiences of emotional formation

Description:  Our emotional experiences from childhood and with our families shape our behavior into adulthood and our current families in more ways than we can imagine.  This workshop provides practical insight into how our individual emotional experiences have shaped us and the time to process our discoveries with others.  Through the light of truth and being open with caring others, we are often set free from the deep emotional scars of traumatic experiences.  You will be provided the space and structure to thoughtfully consider your life and God’s purposes in bringing you through what you have experienced and how that shapes your present and future.  In this interactive workshop,  you will have the opportunity (but not pressure) to share your own thoughts, feelings and experiences. 

Saturday April 14 – 8:30 am- 5 pm

at Olive Grove Ctr, Highway Subangdaku, Mandaue (250 m north of Wireless flyover)
