Coping mechanisms, both good and bad, are used to help manage difficult or painful situations. Sometimes overcoming bad coping mechanisms can require changes that we can manage ourselves with the help of our friends and family, but sometimes it requires additional outside support.

These informative videos below will assist you in identifying damaging coping mechanisms that you need additional help to overcome.

How to Read the Bible: Narratives

Tuesdays at 6:30 PM | Starting Sep. 27

Learn how to read the stories in the Bible to find its universal truths. We will study the story of Jonah over six weeks to learn strategies to read for understanding.

Lab time includes interactive learning and time to practice together. We will explore answers to the following questions: What is the story saying? Why does it say it that way? What does it mean? What truths is it teaching? What does that mean for me? How can l respond to its truths?

By applying the same strategies to other biblical narratives, you can:

• enhance your bible reading,
• gain a greater depth of understanding,
• discern truths for the original audience and for today,
• feel equipped to respond to its universal truths.

Register today. Childcare and snacks provided.

This is the first in a series of labs: Part 2: How to Read the Bible: Discourse, and Part 3: How to Read the Bible: Poetry
