EUM church
offers Fall classes
This Fall, EUM Church is hosting several classes and support groups
that offer enrichment for your spiritual life. Find out how God
can work in your life and how He wants you to respond. The offerings
include:
12 Christian Beliefs that Can Drive You Crazy –Not everything believed
as a biblical truth is truly biblical. The authors debunk 12 commonly
accepted beliefs that cause bondage rather than liberty. They explain
how nuggets of truth become cornerstones for error when wrongly
understood, and they help build solid scriptural foundations that
produce emotional freedom. Two of the topics are 1) It’s selfish to
have my needs met, and 2) If I have God, I don’t need people.
The Art of Marriage: Getting to the Heart of God's Design – This a
Bible study for adults that helps participants blend their
personalities and their life's circumstances to create a
divinely-inspired work of art--marriage. Every marriage is unique,
expressed by the colorful personalities of each spouse and textured by
the circumstances at play in their lives.
Blending these to make marriage work is a divinely inspired art
form--challenging to
master but definitely worth the effort. Get ready to make a masterpiece
of your marriage through this study.
Boundaries – Boundaries is a unique journey of spiritual growth, of
challenge to change, of problem solving, of recovery, and of hope.
Offering practical help and encouragement to all who seek a healthy,
balanced life, Boundaries presents insight and wisdom for those seeking
to live within that balance. This is a course for those who are already
in healthy situations who would like to have a better sense of when to
say “yes” to something and when to say “no”, as well as those who are
in great need of setting boundaries. Step into the freedom you’ve been
looking for!
DivorceCare – This support group is where you can find help and healing
for the hurt of separation and divorce. It is a friendly, caring
group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most
difficult experiences. Don’t go through separation or divorce
alone. DivorceCare is led by people who understand what you are
going through and want to help. You’ll gain access to valuable
DivorceCare resources to help you deal with the pain of the past and
look forward to rebuilding your life.
God is Closer Than You Think by John Ortberg – Intimacy with God can
happen right now - a closeness you can feel, a reality you can
experience for yourself. Find God where you least expect Him, listen to
God's voice, identify which pathway of relationship you're uniquely
deigned to travel, align yourself with the flow of the Holy Spirit,
draw closer to God even when he seems absent. Connecting with Him isn't
the exclusive domain of monks! It's for business people, busy moms,
single men & women, high school students...and most
important it's for YOU.
GriefShare – Walk the journey of grief and be supported on the
way. Griefshare is a place where hurting people find healing and
hope. It is a network of grief recovery support that will give
you direction, purpose and healing.
Radical by David Platt – Take a transforming journey in authentic
discipleship. As the pastor of a large and wealthy congregation, David
Platt began to see a
discrepancy between the reality of his Church and the way Jesus said
His followers lived. In Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the
American Dream, Platt examines how
American Christianity has manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural
preferences and
challenges readers to rediscover the path. If you are looking for
a “feel good” class that allows you to rest in your faith—THIS AIN’T
IT! This course will make you squirm with actually living out God’s
call on your life.
Sacred Rhythms: Arranging Our Lives for Spiritual Transformation by
Ruth Haley Barton – Sacred Rhythms explores the practices that
spiritual seekers and growing disciples have used throughout history to
grow closer to God. The disciplines of the spiritual life are the basic
components of the rhythm of intimacy that feeds the soul, keeping
Christians open and available to God's surprising initiative in their
lives.
Soul Keeping: Caring For the Most Important Part of You by John Ortberg
– Rediscover your soul - the best connection to God there is - and find
out why it's hurting and why neglecting it has set so many believers
back spiritually. Your soul’s resting place is in God and God wants to
take you to that home!
What Love Is: the Letters of 1, 2, 3 John (Women’s Bible Study) – The
letters of 1, 2, & 3 John were written to encourage followers of
Jesus to remain faithful to the truth. Believers are challenged to look
at contrasting themes such as walking in the light instead of darkness,
truth versus lies and deception, loving God more than loving the world,
and the meaning of true fellowship and community rather than
shallowness. This study reveals not only the heart of John but also the
heart of Jesus.
