Healing for Life's Complicated Issues

Each of us has a story to tell. Each story is different, but has a common thread throughout: we all bear the marks of some painful and often times unresolved wounds which prevent us from experiencing “the more abundant life” Christ promised.

Course Description
Living Beyond My Wounds is a 26 week journey that takes an honest look at wounds through a practical and Biblical foundation in order to offer resolution of painful memories.

Course Objectives
At the end of the 26 week journey, participants should be able to understand and resolve the following:

• The power of destructive thought patterns and influence in one's life. "For as he thinks within himself, so he is."
• Rejection and how to resolve its painful residue.
• Shame and its toxic effect.
• Remove the protective mask of perfectionism.
• Rid self of resentment and bitterness.
