Very few of us actually plan to control others. So how does it happen? In our experience at Philadelphia Renewal Network, it often begins with an expectation for relational closeness, agreement, or submission, which then spirals into insisting or demanding. As we wrap up our fall focus on “Faithful Boundaries,” we’d love to keep the conversation going—over email or a phonecall, or even better, over coffee. Feel free to reach out!

"I Love This Person But They're Killing Me": A Biblical & Clinical Seminar on Relational Boundaries — Join us this Wednesday, November 19 @ 7pm at Liberti River Wards Church

Do some of the loved ones in your life "over-reach"? Do you wonder if you are overfunctioning in a relationship? Do you wonder how to navigate "TMI" conversations in your small group? Do you find yourself dreading holiday encounters with family members? "I Love This Person But They're Killing Me" is a seminar grounded in biblical principles of personhood and relationships, and will also access clinical strategies for navigating difficult relational situations in families, churches, organizations, and one-on-one relationships. Significant time will be given for Q&A and dialogue throughout.

This is a free seminar + discussion. Spread the word!
