Connect with horses & Jesus to learn God's answers for everything from physical health issues, to your hurts, hangups & habits, in this 8-week course starting soon.
WHAT: This Bible study has an equine edge! Chances are you have never experienced a faith journey through the Scriptures quite like this! Each class is three (3) hours long which includes two, 1-1/2 hour sessions for eight weeks. Session one is a group Bible study with Pastor Rick Warren, teaching biblical healing principles via DVD. The second session of each class is an equine-assisted learning (E.A.L.) opportunity with the TFO Farm herd of horses, facilitated by certified equine-assisted learning coach, Deb Peterson. PLEASE NOTE: Although highly recommended, the E.A.L. portion of this course is optional and is provided by Too Far Out Farm LLC and Equine-Assisted Recovery/Learning Coach, Debbie Peterson for a discounted fee*.
WHO: Adults, age 18+
WHERE: Too Far Out Farm LLC of Guys Mills, PA for the Equine-Assisted Learning (E.A.L.) part of the class AND at United Evangelical Free Church of Guys Mills, PA, for the Life's Healing Choices DVD teaching part.
WHEN: Weekly, for 8 consecutive weeks. Please fill out & submit the form on this page and you will be notified when the next course starts.
WHY: The Bible clearly states God’s answers to healing life’s hurts, hang-ups & habits. Let’s discover Jesus' way to good health, wholeness & happiness together, with the TFO Farm herd. Horses are intuitive, honest and able teachers. They aid our healing in surprising and meaningful ways!
COST: FREE, if taking just the Life's Healing Choices DVD course without Equine-Assisted Learning (E.A.L.) add-on sessions.
E.A.L. (add-on) TUITION COST*: $300 for all eight sessions.
