The Lord is My CourageTragically, so many of us have been wounded by harmful teaching and people in the very places we have sought to find healing and love - the Church.
Come join the conversation in the safety of a supportive and empathetic community who will hold your hurt and grief with you. Come and find a gentle and kind Shepherd who will bind up your brokenness and restore your soul. Come, take care and courage as we dare to enter back into the sacred spaces of the Presence of God and loving community. Beginning Wednesday, March 12th and continuing through April 9th, Fellowship Hall at FPC MIlton, 6:45 p.m. (Join us for supper at 6 p.m. if you like).

This Lenten season, take care and courage.
Join Tara Riggs on Wednesdays throughout Lent as we read and discuss KJ Ramsey's The Lord is My Courage.
Walking through Psalm 23 phrase by phrase, therapist and author K.J. Ramsey explores the landscape of our fear, trauma, and faith. When she stepped through her own wilderness of spiritual abuse and religious trauma, K.J. discovered that courage is not the absence of anxiety but the practice of trusting we will be held and loved no matter what.How can we cultivate courage when fear overshadows our lives? How do we hear the Voice of Love when hate and harm shout loud? This book offers an honest path to finding that there is still a Good Shepherd who is always following you. Braiding contemplative storytelling, theological reflection, and practical neuroscience, Ramsey reveals a route into connection and joy that begins right where you are.
The Lord is My Courage is for the deconstructing and the dreamers, the afraid and the amazed, for those whose fear has not been fully shepherded but who can't seem to stop listening for their Good Shepherd's Voice.
