SCHOOL OF CHRISTIAN LEARNING
UPCOMING SCHEDULE
There are times in our lives when human words fall short or fall silent before the wonder or the wound of our hearts. In this two-part series, Charlene weaves Scripture and story to share the holy words that have sustained her life of faith. She will teach practices for narrating our lives with God’s Word, to profess our own “Words I Live By”. Come just as you are for conversation, to listen to the scriptures, to borrow the faith of others, to deepen your own, or to begin—or begin anew—a life of faith!

Part 2 of 3-Part Series
How do we experience the life we long for? How do we experience all Jesus promised
when he said: “My sheep know my voice and follow me” (John 10:3,5,27). In these two
weeks we will unpack how to experience a “conversational relationship” with Jesus that
opens us to finding the life we desire.

Topic: “TRAUMA”
Trauma is a word we hear frequently these days: the Rev. Dr. Gary Sattler, a research psychoanalyst, retired Presbyterian minister and seminary professor, will help us think about what trauma is, its effects, and ways of responding, both with others and ourselves.
What does it mean to forgive? Are we to “forgive and forget?” Does it mean to just be nice? Gary Sattler will be with us again this week to explore what forgiveness means, how God thinks about it, and what we should expect of ourselves (and perhaps hope for from others).
