Healing Care Small Groups
The Healing Care Small Group is a ministry of Christian caregiving that integrates pastoral care, spiritual direction, and spirit-directed counseling with a view to bringing hope, healing, and spiritual well-being to broken people. Participants will explore the process of formational prayer and the relationship past woundings and traumatic events have upon dysfunctional behavior and emotional upheaval. Formational Prayer is a process of deep emotional healing that positions people to meet Jesus in the memories of past wounding experiences. Such wounds often generate destructive false beliefs, debilitating emotional turmoil, and countless dysfunctional behaviors in the lives of God’s people. Through formational prayer, hurting people are able to experience the transforming power of Christ that brings freedom and release.
The Groups meet in 2 ½ - 3 hour sessions for sixteen weeks. Each week, participants will experience these three components of small group healing ministry:
- A teaching component which focuses on the objectives of the session relative to the topic,
- An experiential component which focuses on spiritual disciplines and limbic exercises designed to connect with the affective response relative to the topic, and
- A spiritual component that engages a specific text or theological concept relative to the topic
There is an $85 registration fee for the 16-week course that includes a participant's workbook, two additional books, and all materials
