The Problem with Perfectionism: Living With Courage In A Wounding World
Location: All Saints’ Hall
Leaders: The Reverend Chip Edens, Dr. Brené Brown
Perfectionism is killing us. It affects how we view ourselves and shapes our outlook on what is possible in our lives.  How do we learn to silence the negative voice and embrace what is good and possible in our lives? How do we learn to listen to God’s voice and live with ordinary courage in a wounding world? Brené Brown, Ph.D., LMSW has spent the past ten years studying vulnerability, courage, authenticity, and shame. Now she’s using that work to explore a concept that she calls “Wholeheartedness."

Small Group Bible Study: The Prodigal Son
Location: M218
Leaders: Lynn Purdum, John Culbertson and Peter deVries
Tim Keller’s “The Prodigal God” is our guide as we look at one of the best known Christian parables: The Prodigal Son. This semester we will we dive into themes of hope and salvation. We will have plenty of opportunities for discussion and for growing deeper in our faith. All are welcome.
