personal growth courses

The Courses below are Biblically-based and will equip you with practical tools for personal and spiritual growth.

  • WHOLENESS

    The Wholeness Course runs twice a year at Grace Family Church and brings together the five areas of human function – the spiritual, rational, behavioural, physical and emotional aspects of self. Attenders will better understand why they think, feel and behave the way they do.


    Wholeness gives a practical framework for understanding how all areas of our life fits into God’s plan, and the tools that help us grow closer in our relationships with Him.


    Please note that this course is a pre-requisite to the annual Grace Counselling Training Course.


    The Wholeness Course is also available onlie or on DVD with accompanying manual for R150.

  • freedom in christ

    The award-winning Freedom In Christ Discipleship Course is a proven and effective way for churches to help Christians become fruitful disciples. It involves 13 sessions and a ministry component called the Steps to Freedom in Christ. Churches normally run a session a week, with an Away Day for the Steps between Sessions 9 and 10, making it a 13-14 week course. However, there is some flexibility in how the course is run, and different options are laid out in the Leaders Guide to ensure you get the right fit for your situation.

IMAGO GETTING THE LOVE YOU WANT - COUPLES WORKSHOP


These workshops are structured with short pieces of theory to the group of couples (no more than about 8 couples) and then opportunities for connecting and communication experiences between you as a couple. These are done on your own or with the facilitation of either my colleague, Helen or myself, if requested. These are not done in front of other couples. There are demonstrations of the dialogue processes we teach, but these are voluntary and there is no pressure there. It is run by myself and another psychologist and we provide a confidential and safe environment for our couples.


In the workshop you gain insight into how patterns of reaction and frustration occur and how to develop a new way of being in relationship. Personally as an Imago therapist I think that all couples can benefit from this workshop as it only serves to enhance your relationship. It is particularly helpful when there has been a history of ruptured connection and a couple is wanting to move forward and commit to a more constructive way of relating to each other. It really provides a platform for relational healing and growth!


Below is an excerpt from our Information form to couples who are interested in registering for our workshop:

Imago therapy is a form of couples therapy designed to develop and strengthen relational connection and commitment. The concept of ‘Imago’ literally means one’s ‘image of love’. The Imago Getting The Love You Want Workshop is designed to help couples learn valuable tools for communication, connection, commitment, and conflict resolution. It facilitates understanding of each other’s imago as you journey in love and life together. Based on the book Getting The Love You Want by Harville Hendrix and his wife Helen La Kelly Hunt, this workshop by the same name, facilitates understanding of how and why patterns of conflict occur in committed relationships and provides a safe and confidential space in which to learn and experience a new way to love.

Refer any couples you believe would benefit from attending. We are able to submit to your medical aid or make use of your Primary Minimum Benefits should you require to do so.
