[Online] The Fine Messy Art of Adulting
“In the hero stories, the call to go on a journey takes the form of a loss, an error, a wound, an unexplainable longing, or a sense of a mission. When any of these happens to us, we are being summoned to make a transition. It will always mean leaving something behind…The paradox here is that loss is a path to gain.” ― David Richo
Does adulting simply mean having the capacity to own and to do as adults are expected to own and do? Or is there something more? Is there a standard “life roadmap” that one ought to follow to find happiness and peace? Could there be a time when one needs to ‘grow out’ and ‘grow up’? Where is God in all of this? How is God calling one to the “more,” to greater meaning, peace and joy?
Explore and discover the interior heroic journey of growing up as a young adult using some reflections and insights based on David Richo’s book ‘How To Be An Adult’. Sessions over two mornings include input, reflection/prayer time and faith sharing in small groups. Open to persons between 23 and 39 years old.
