TARRP: From Charity to Changing Lives
April 9th
John Stewart UMC
130 W. Johonson St., Upper Sandusky 43351
Enabling others is part of the disadvantage of charity. Learn how to move beyond enabling to help improve and change lives. Dr. Mike Linger will present how toxic, demeaning, and dependent charity can be and how the House of the Carpenter helps with immediate needs, yet moves people beyond receiving basic charity toward changing lives. Rev. Debra Ketcham will also share a format which has improved and changed lives in amazing ways.
Each participant will come away with specific ways to shift away from charity to being 'change agents' which improve lives. Cost is $20.00/person or $15.00/per person with three or more from the same church/charge.
