Choose Your Starting Point
Healthy Self
Put your own oxygen mask on first. Learn and practice the skills of being in the present moment, open to unfolding possibilities as a pathway to creativity. With the ability to be aware of choice in a stressful moment, you have power to make decisions that lead to healthy relationships.
Get Started!
Healthy Relationships
We are born into a relational matrix, and we are continually shaped by the relational connections in our lives. It is well worth the effort to ensure these connections are helping us to fully live into our gifts, talents, and calling. Reduce negative interactions and nurture empathy, vulnerability, and compassion as a pathway to experiencing more positive interactions.
I'm Ready!
Healthy Community
Learning and growing can be more fun when we share the journey with others facing similar challenges. Sometimes we can feel alone or think we are the only ones struggling, but rarely is that the case. Faithful Family Life offers small group studies to inform and guide your conversations as you build skills and grow more deeply connected.
Better Together!
Age Specific Resources
We experience developmental challenges through the entirety of our life. At each stage, our developmental tasks change as we integrate prior knowledge with new capacity for understanding. Sometimes these developmental moments can be overwhelming, and a community of support can offer helpful guidance to ensure you have the skills needed to thrive in the midst of change.
