A road map for discipleship with Jesus that is powerfully transformative.
Peter Scazzero learned the hard way: you can't be spiritually mature while remaining emotionally immature. Even though he was the pastor of a growing church, he did what most people do--avoid conflict in the name of Christianity; ignore his anger, sadness, and fear; use God to run from God; and live without boundaries.
Eventually God awakened him to a biblical integration of emotional health and the spiritual practice of slowing down and quieting your life for to experience a firsthand relationship with Jesus. It created nothing short of a spiritual revolution in Scazzero, in his church, and now in thousands of other churches.
We will begin the evening together as one large group to watch the video and then break into separate small groups of men & women.

Geri Scazzero knew there was something desperately wrong with her life. She felt like a single parent raising her four young daughters alone. She finally told her husband, “I quit,” and left the thriving church he pastored, beginning a journey that transformed her and her marriage for the better.
The journey to emotional health begins by quitting. Geri quit being afraid of what others think. She quit lying. She quit denying her anger and sadness. She quit living someone else’s life. When you quit those things that are damaging to your soul or the souls of others, you are freed up to choose other ways of being and relating that are rooted in love and lead to life.
When you quit for the right reasons, at the right time, and in the right way, you’re on the path not only to emotional health, but also to the true purpose of your life.
This study will begin on Wednesday, Sept 18
We will do 4 sessions this Fall: Sept 18, Oct 2 & 23, Nov 6th
We will return after the holidays for 4 more sessions this Winter: Jan 15 & 29, Feb 12 & 26

Welcome to Australia, mates! Join our adventure of exciting activities, novel games, evening campfires, caring staff, and of course— boomerangs! Did you know how hard it can be to throw a boomerang? Hitting the target is the goal, but it takes a lot of practice and boomerang blunders are common. In fact, sometimes it’s easier to give up instead of trying again! Christ says in Revelation 22:12 that He will reward every person as they deserve. Juniors today are already making important choices about God that can last through their teen years—and those choices have consequences. This summer we will be teaching juniors how to aim at the mark of making Godly choices, giving them hope to try again after a messup, and encouraging them to continue the practice of living for Christ and His rewards.
This Camp is for those entering 4th grade through those entering 7th grade.
$50 Registration fee
For more information or to register, contact Interim Children’s Ministry Director, Charmaine Fuimos here
