The Hero’s Journey

The Practice of Discernment

MARCH 4-25

Jayne Davis

In this class we will learn how to make effective discernment - specifically, Ignatian discernment - a daily practice. Using Mark Thibodeaux's book, God’s Voice Within, we will learn ways to discern what is at the root of our actions and emotions, which in turn allows us to respond to God’s promptings inside us rather than unconsciously reacting to life around us.

Christian Davis

You know it. You love it. Come play pickleball in a welcoming space perfect for beginners and seasoned players alike.

Men’s Bible Study

A Lenten Practice

FEBRUARY 25

Barrett Owen

The season of Lent offers a time for meaningful reflection on our spiritual life and our relationship with God. Many people give up something as an act of sacrifice. Others begin a new practice to help them to go deeper in their faith journey. In this one-night session, Barrett Owen will discuss a variety of spiritual practices and help participants to find a Lenten practice that is best suited for them.

The Exciting History of Music & Art in the Church

Tracie Jernigan

Have you ever wondered why we sing what we sing, where our music came from, and how it has evolved from biblical Judaism to today?  Wonder no more in this interactive class and deepen your understanding of the music and art of Christianity.
