Friday, April 11, 8:30am-4:30pm AND Saturday, April 12, 8:30am-6:00pm

Emotionally Focused (formerly known as Faithwalking) is a process that gives us a pathway to personal and relational health and growth. In the initial course (Faithwalking 101 or Emotionally Focused: Foundation) we take a look at the anxiety that can drive us away from ministry and mission. Anxiety disrupts our lives in many ways, but mainly our relationships. These disruptions in our formation relate to our “first formation” and how different patterns formed within us at a young age. As such, we begin to look back at our past and what has kept us from living a life full of authenticity, integrity, and obedience. Thus, we begin to disrupt certain practices or habits that prevent us from living the kind of life God has called us to live.

Registrants must be available to attend both full days (Friday/Saturday) of the intensive to participate.

$25 cost includes lunches and snacks.
