The Space Between Overwhelmed and Calm
A Navigating Grace Spaces Workshop
November 9, 2024

Feeling that there’s more than we can process in one or several areas of life is a common experience. Often, it’s more common than we realize because others feel ashamed to share this struggle. “Why can’t I just declare a scripture and get over this?”

Our minds know the truths of scripture, but we’re not experiencing them right now and that can feel like failure to be a “good Christian.”

As Grace Spaces veterans know, shame is the #1 reason we become reluctant to come to the Lord or share with others that something that feels too much, too fast or has gone on too long. We fear that we won’t be accepted in this place by others, even by God.

But Jesus has compassion for us in those places because He experienced them too. (We’ll talk about those.) He remembers.

On Saturday, November 9th from 9:00 am - 12:00 pm, we will hold a special workshop for “The Space Between Overwhelmed and Calm”

We will explore:

• Signposts of being overwhelmed

• Recognizing our grace spaces of stress, struggle and self-rescue

• Understanding our “Windows of Tolerance”

• Expanding our capacity to receive God’s grace, mercy and help

• Specific practices that help navigate these grace spaces 

We’ll have times of training but also sharing, praying and practicing together in a caring, supportive and encouraging environment. 

You are welcome to come if you’re in the midst of an overwhelming time or if you want to be prepared when one arrives. 

This workshop is for women only.
