Redemptive Compassion

This class is offered specifically for church leaders and members.  It is a 7 week study on the Biblical philosophy of how the Church can offer holistic help to those we serve.  “Need” will not change until we change how we address it!  We will work through and discern what Scripture says about this challenging subject.  (7 weeks)

Through the Love and Learn educational opportunities we take a holistic approach to addressing need. True transformation requires looking beyond immediate need.

We engage relationally with people to address the emotional, spiritual, physical and relational circumstances that led to the immediate need in the first place. Our class facilitators are volunteers trained and equipped to teach specific life skills and/or mentor people as they continue to grow towards change.
