Godly Play for Adults
Tuesdays, Oct. 14 to Nov. 11 | 5 class sessions
Godly Play is an approach to faith formation that combines story-telling with spiritual practices that help us explore the mystery of God’s presence in our lives. It engages what is most exciting about religious education: God inviting us into -- and pursuing us in the midst of -- scripture and spiritual experience. Godly Play teaches us to listen for God and to make authentic and creative responses to God’s call in our lives. Facilitated by Natasha Ulack.

How Is It with Your Soul?
Tuesdays, Oct. 14 to Nov. 11 | 5 class sessions
Bring into balance the inner and outer dimensions of the Christian life. Organized around four verbs -- pray, learn, mentor, transform -- this class will challenge you to become a more vibrant disciple of Christ as we study together “How Is It with Your Soul?” by authors Priscilla Pope-Levison and Jack Levison. Facilitated by Ann McGinley.

The Journey of Self-Compassion
Tuesdays, Oct. 21 to Nov. 11 | 4 class sessions
Many people believe they need to be self-critical to motivate themselves -- but in fact, they just end up feeling anxious, incompetent and depressed. Join in our group study of Dr. Kristin Neff’s book, “Self-Compassion: A Healthier Way of Relating to Yourself,” as we explore how self-compassion helps us see ourselves more clearly and opens a path away from constant, debilitating self-judgment. Facilitated by Rev. John Elford and Diane Ireson.
