SUMMARY:Parenting Group - Building Resilience in Children & Teens
DESCRIPTION:Our Parenting Group will resume\, and we will start the year with a great book:\nBuilding Resilience in Children and Teens by Kenneth R. Ginsburg with Martha M. Jablow.\nOver 8 weeks\, we will explore how to raise children that can be emotionally strong\, connected\, and rooted in love\, grounded in faith\, grace\, and community.\nBuilding Resilience in Children and Teens is a practical\, strength-based guide for adults who are raising\, teaching\, mentoring\, or caring for young people. The authors remind us that resilience can be taught and strengthened—it’s not something children either have or don’t have. Centered on the Seven Cs of Resilience\, the book offers everyday tools to help children meet challenges with confidence\, connection\, and hope as they grow.  This group is a supportive space for parents and caregivers to learn together\, share honestly\, and be reminded that we don’t do this work alone. \nMeeting Dates:\nFebruary 2\, 9\, 16\, 23\nMarch 2\, 9\, 16\, 23\nTime: 6:30–7:30 PM\nLocation: Room 207\nChild Care: Provided \nYou may also join online via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Monday Night Bible Study - Doubt by Adam Hamilton
DESCRIPTION:Wrestling with Doubt\, Finding Faith by Adam Hamilton \nMonday Night Bible Study January 12 – February 16\, 2026 \nYou are warmly invited to join a new study on Monday evenings in the new year. Using Rev. Adam Hamilton’s book Wrestling with Doubt\, Finding Faith\, we will explore a variety of matters of faith. \nThe first is: does your faith make room for questions? Everyone has doubts. Where is God when bad things happen? Does God hear our prayers? Is there a heaven? How can we know? Often we treat such questions as the enemy of faith. But uncertainty doesn’t mean our belief is lacking. Doubt can be a path to a deeper\, richer encounter with God. \nIn his book\, author and pastor Adam Hamilton discusses some of our most significant sources of doubt and shows how a steady trust in God can emerge from them. We will delve into questions like: “Does God exist? How can I know?” “Is the Bible true?” “Why do prayers go unanswered?” \nHamilton approaches these sources of doubt with honesty and insight\, drawing on the rich wisdom of the Bible\, Christian tradition\, and his experience walking with thousands of people on their spiritual journey. Whether you’re a longtime Christian or someone brand new to faith\, this book will be a resource as we reach for a trust in God that is unafraid of hard questions. Wrestle with doubt and find faith—belief and trust\, not certainty; mystery rather than simple answers. \nThis class welcomes participants by Zoom and in-person. You may purchase a copy of the book from your favorite book seller.  This class begins Monday\, January 12\, 6:45-8:15 pm and will continue through February 16. Please Sign up Here or contact Max Plank\, Dawn Goellner or Joy Barrett.
