Created to Belong
Healing Our Earthly Relationships through Our Relationship with
God |
| Our earliest relationships greatly influence the manner in which
we relate to others throughout our lives. The attachment to our
primary caregivers (our parents) in our first three years was meant
to mirror God’s unconditional love toward us. When we are hurt by
less than ideal earthly relationships, we can lose faith in the
possibility of emotional and spiritual well-being. Because God
created us to be in relationship – with each other and with him
– we can find peace and hope in his overwhelming love and
goodness. |
| Through an integrated approach involving lecture, video clips,
exercises and music, participants in Created to Belong will learn
how elements of theology, psychology, neurobiology, and scripture
can help create healthier and more satisfying relationships. |
Who Should Take This Class:
|
- Those actively parenting young children
|
- Those seeking a deeper trust in God
|
- Those desiring relational healing – with themselves,
their families, their children, and/or with God
|
- Those curious about how they can build healthier, more
functional connections
