Social Contagion: or Is Happiness Catching?
Rev. Dr. Richard Shoup (from The Counseling Center)

Dr. Richard Shoup is a psychotherapist, consultant, and public speaker. He will be speaking about the latest social research on how people influence one another.

Apparently, happiness is catching, and most social interactions influence us. Emotions, like crying and anger are catching as well. Why are we so incredibly susceptible to the influence of others? It seems mimicry is innate.

Dr. Shoup will look at the possibilities for growth and development: How could this information help us lose weight or keep any of our New Year's resolutions? And on the social front, what if we all began to believe that wars and hunger and poverty were all unnecessary and could be eradicated? And finally, what are the implications for the power of Christian community?

What if Jesus Had a Sister? Virginia Woolf's Mythological Mary
Erik Fuhrer

Erik just arrived back from Glasgow, Scotland where he studied for a master's degree in Modernities. He is interested in the interactions between Literature and Theology and is currently applying to Ph.D. programs in English Literature.  He served as our church accountant in 2008. 

Erik’s Masters thesis focused on Virginia Woolf, Mary Magdalene, and the body of Christ continues through the remainder of the fall.

Prayer, Meditation and Listening for God
Learning from the path of contemplative Christianity
Sunday mornings January  24 through Febuary 28
Calvin Room

Rev. Cari Pattison Riley
Rev. Ken Ruge          

Stop.  Breathe.  Listen.  Be Still.  In a world that moves too fast and places little value on quiet times, the practice of contemplative prayer offers rest to your soul and invites God’s presence into your life. 

This series includes the book Be Still: 31 Days to a Deeper Prayer Life.  Through the book, DVD, and personal, spiritual practice of prayer we will draw near to God in new ways. 

Please sign up here or RSVP to cari@reformedchurch.org in order to reserve a book.
