A Workshop with Elizabeth Hoffman

Pain, trauma, suffering…these experiences test and shape us in our walk. Our broken world shows us that trials are inevitable, but our trials are not meant to trap us, yet often we can feel trapped by them. We can find ourselves defining our life or who we are by the suffering we have experienced and get stuck in a place of hopelessness and trying desperately to avoid the things that trigger our pain. So, how do we untether ourselves from our past pain and walk forward through our very personal experiences without allowing them to define and trap us, robbing us of hope?

Together, we will unpack 1 Peter 1:3-9 where we come to know the living hope we have through Jesus Christ and the “inexpressible and glorious joy” we can experience even as our faith is tested and strengthened in our trials.
You are invited, along with other women, to come and explore how your journey of trials has shaped your view of yourself and the life you live and to be encouraged as you anchor to the hope you have through Jesus.

A Workshop with Melanie Beerda

Are you feeling stuck in your spiritual walk with God? Perhaps you’ve found yourself complacent, distracted, or overwhelmed, and you’re longing for a deeper connection with Him.

Whether you are a seasoned Christian or a new believer, we all go through seasons of spiritual drought. This workshop is designed to help women move past the barriers that hinder them from flourishing in their personal walk with God. You’ll be encouraged to take inventory of your spiritual life and identify areas where you’ve expected God to do something for you that you haven’t been willing to do for yourself. Be prepared to dig into a time of vulnerability and self reflection.

This workshop will empower you to break free from spiritual complacency, get back on track with God, and will equip you to rekindle your faith with renewed passion and clarity.

What to Bring:

• A pen and notebook for reflection and note -taking.
