Storied Lives are groups that explore the participants' pasts in order for them to live more freely in their present. They are offered through New Hope Counseling, Redeemer's counseling service. The groups use biblically-faithful material that is based on Dan Allender's work, and they meet once in November and sixteen times from January to May; they have four to six participants, and they are facilitated by trained leaders. Groups meet on Monday nights, and this year, there may be a daytime option as well. We all hold hard stories from our lives that linger in our minds and carry a sense of confusion, grief, and shame. Storied Lives creates a safe and powerful space for people to share these stories and invite others into them to seek the Holy Spirit, who brings comfort, healing, and growth. 

If you know of  someone (male or female) who may be a good candidate, please consider asking them about it. A good candidate:

• is fairly steady emotionally (i.e., not in crisis); has some past wounds or present challenges they can't seem to shake 

• has capacity to explore their weaknesses in addition to their strengths 

If you have any questions, please email me at carrie@newhopeindianapolis.org.

Applications are available here. Due October 16th.
