Emotionally Health Spirituality Course

Wednesdays, Sep 30 - Nov 18 | 7pm - 9pm | Virtually On Zoom | Contact: jessica.rechner@newlife.nyc

You cannot be spiritually mature while remaining emotionally immature. Lasting transformation requires slowing down and cultivating a first-hand relationship with Jesus Christ. These two foundational truths sparked a spiritual revolution in Pete Scazzero, founder of Emotionally Healthy Discipleship and New Life Fellowship. Join us for the Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Course, an 8-week journey that forms Part I of our core discipleship pathway and explores what it truly means to follow Jesus and live in authentic community at New Life. This course is open to formal members and anyone who has been attending New Life for 6 months and has taken our Foundations course.
