Have you ever wondered how you could know for certain that God loved you? Being Boldly Loved and Loving Boldly is a series of classes in spiritual formation formed to invite you deeper in your relationship with God. They each are a contemplative study that provides space to experience God from an understanding of love rather than judgment.
As I (Kathi) have spoken with people, many have expressed a growing desire to know God more intimately; primarily knowledge-based faith doesn’t seem to suffice any longer. Several people have shared that their questions continue to go unanswered. My desire to create and offer this study came from my own journey, which seems to resonate with others. Our image of God defines our actions, beliefs, spiritual life, and in that impacts those around us.
Groups are limited to 6-8 participants to create a close community for sharing and growing deeper in our individual relationships with God. The studies build upon each other and need to be taken in order.
This first 12-week study begins the journey - Experiencing God: Creating Space through Contemplative Prayer, as we begin to understand how the world and Scripture shape our view of God. Combining that part of discovery with contemplative prayer allows God to open us to a deeper understanding of ourselves, God, and others.
