Parenting Teenagers

Do you struggle in your attempt to bring up your teenage children, or are you already concerned about the impact that teenage years are going to bring to your family? Do you wonder if you are dealing with your teenagers in the right way?

Well we may have the course available, which could help you, or at least provide a forum where you can share your concerns with others who feel the same. In addition you might possibly be able to get reassurance and advice.

The course, which will take place over five weeks, will be considering a variety of relevant issues. Samples of those to be covered are:

How to keep the lines of communication open.
Can we get discipline right?
Are we really stricter than other teenagers’ parents?
How much freedom should we allow?

The course will look at issues always with humour, and will include videos and plenty of time for discussion.

It will take place at Poynton Baptist Church every Thursday evening, beginning on 2nd November  from 7.45pm to 9.45pm, and each succeeding Thursday up to and including Thursday 30th November 2000. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

October Multimedia Livelink Event

7:30pm on Sunday 8th October

How to be Spiritual without being Religious ?

We can all agree that spirituality is relevant and part of the current zeitgeist. Many of us from a variety of perspectives and experiences would add that religion is out. It is also the perception of many that they are still searching for that missing ingredient of life, which may be defined by the term spirituality.  

You may be on a journey of discovery, in your attempt to find the expression of spirituality most appropriate to you. Where has your journey led you so far? You may have had contact with expressions of spirituality such as New Age, Buddhism,  or Hinduism or are you studying other ways of bringing peace into your life. Are you attempting to unlock your true potential with mind, body and spirit? If so what about spirit?

Do you consult your horoscope regularly? Have you had contact with those dealing psychic power? Why do you think that George Lucas, Director of Star Wars, was constantly referring to ‘The Force’ in the Star Wars films?

 

In John Grisham’s very popular novel ‘The Testament’, he writes about a character called Dr Rachel Lane, whose spirituality leads her to devote her medical skills to the care of a tribe of  Indians in the Amazon and to reject an inheritance of several millions. Is she crazy, deluded  or does she have a spirituality which is real?

 

At Poynton Baptist Church we invited you to a continue your spiritual journey by considering the nature of the spirituality of Jesus, and whether or not it is authentic. This was done in a light hearted manner through the medium of drama (including Darth Vader and his mother), video clips, live music and 3 short talks. It took place at Poynton Baptist Church on Sunday October 8th 2000 between 7.30pm for one hour 8.30pm. All are always welcome whatever your views and we look forward to seeing you at any Livelink.
