"I am the vine; you are the branches. 
Whoever abides in me and I in him, 
he it is that bears much fruit,
for apart from me you can do nothing."

Emotionally Healthy Spirituality
Led by Angie Evilia | Open to all | Wednesdays at 6 pm for 8 weeks
If you are desiring to take steps in your Christian life and discipleship and break free from bondage to the past and experience healing, this study is for you. Emotional Healthy Spirituality is an eight-session, video-based Bible study on the integration of emotional health and contemplative spirituality. Many sincere followers of Christ—followers who are really passionate for God—who join a church, participate weekly in a small group, serve with their gifts, and are considered “mature,” remain stuck at a level of spiritual immaturity; especially when faced with interpersonal conflicts and crises. The Emotionally Healthy Spirituality video study offers a strategy for discipleship that addresses this void, giving you powerful pathways to transformation that will help you mature into a faith filled with authenticity and profound love for God. The cost is $15 for the book.
