Healing Life's Transitions
What keeps me from feeling fully alive right now? Each of us has something that is draining life — a relationship, work situation, unfulfilled dream, aging etc. We think that when we solve this, we will be happy again but we just face another problem to solve. Often when we feel we are half alive, it is not because there is a problem to solve but because there is a new way we are being called to life. This session will explore how adult growth comes when we can find new life within the situation that seems to just be draining life. It will be based on Fr. Linn's book, Healing the Eight Stages of Life. Fr. Matt Linn, SJ, has been in the healing ministry over 30 years and authored over 21 books. Learn more about Fr. Matt Linn, SJ at www.linnministries.org.
