DivorceCare

No matter what has happened, no matter who let you down, you can always run to Jesus. Like taking your car to the auto mechanic when you have car troubles, and when you have a toothache you go to a dentist; when your heart is hurting, you go to the one who made your heart: Jesus. This doesn’t mean life will immediately be easy. But he sees your rawness, brokenness, and fear. He loves you and will never leave you. You don’t have to face anything alone; we want to be there to help you through this time.

What is DivorceCare?

DivorceCare is a life-changing support group of friendly, caring people who welcome others and guide them on the path of recovery after separation or divorce. DivorceCare is a safe place where caring people come alongside you as you find healing from the pain of separation or divorce. DivorceCare is facilitated by Peggy Butler, who has been divorced.

At this 13-week, video-based support group program, you’ll find helpful counsel to manage the emotional turmoil and practical tools for decision-making. Over 1 million people have found comfort and hope through this video-based series. It’s putting the pieces of our broken life back together and takes work.  

DivorceCare support groups meet weekly to help you face the challenges of divorce or separation and move you toward rebuilding your life. We meet as a group, then branch out into smaller gender groups. 

Come let God heal your heart.

What is GriefShare?

At GriefShare you’ll receive valuable guidance and tips, leading you to relief, comfort, and peace of mind after the loss of a loved one. It’s a support group to help you move through the grief process. A GriefShare support group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. Through this 13-week group, you’ll discover what to expect in the days ahead and what’s “normal” in grief. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, you’ll learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability – and gain solid support each step of the way. 

GriefShare is facilitated at Mt. Moriah Baptist Church by Clark and Linda Cothren, who have both been through the loss of a loved one.

Videos That Encourage

Each weekly GriefShare group begins with a 30-minute video featuring respected experts on grief-related topics and helpful stories from people who have experienced loss. Their insights will help you manage your emotions, gain clarity, and find answers to your questions as you walk through the grief process.

Helpful Book to Guide You

Your participant guide serves as a road map on your grief journey. This book helps you process your emotions and experiences and cope with the loss. You’ll apply what you’ve heard in the group and gain tools to deal with complicated grief.

Supportive Discussions

After the video, you and the other group members will spend time discussing what was presented in the video and what is going on in your lives. Talking with other people who understand what you’re experiencing brings great comfort, normalizes the grief experience, and offers a supportive environment to work through your grief.
