A place to come to teach, learn, and dialogue about painful and deep struggles that everyone in the church is dealing with.
I am a 44 yr old woman who has had a story that is full of God's hand and redemption. Therefore, I know a good deal about struggles in life. I long for the church to grow in vulnerability, walking with one another through the hard stuff and the joyful stuff. I am sure that part of my calling in life is to remind the church of the brokenness that exists so that we can care for it and pray for it.
Have you ever seen the movie Wit? I highly recommend watching it with someone else and then discussing it. Its about a woman dying of cancer. Use it to get in touch with how people who are suffering feel. Then also use it to talk about how you could love this woman well if you were her friend. You can also do this with Schindler's List and A Beautiful Mind.

Hi Ann Louise, our church showed the film one time. It seems to me it made me think about the importance of reasoning on death and the afterlife, rather than ignoring the topic.
