Hi Fellow Adoptees,
With the New Year 2011 beginning I wanted to start a personal bible study with a book I was introduced to called, ReWriting Your Emotional Script by Becky Harling, A 10 week study focusing on the Beautitudes. Since I have facilitated adoption triad support groups for over 14 years in Indiana and currently in the Chicagoland IL area, I have recognized how adoption has impacted the emotions and identities of adopted persons. This wonderful book I have chosen to study is written by a pastor's wife and it is more geared for a female audience. Those who join with me to study will be blessed by listening to an audio session by the author and a couple radio hosts who presented an online study of this books for 10 weeks this past summer- Its great for you can listen to the audio any time that is convenient for you each week- I will send the link to the audio session that is about an hour. Any adoptees 18 and up are welcome to join with me in an online bible study beginning the week of January 23rd. For a week we will share about the lesson & readings & audio sessions by posting on a forum. The book can be purchased online through any online stores like Amazon, Christianbooks.com and other stores. You also might check with your local library and ask your librarian to try to get you a copy of the book through inter-library loan. It is not mandatory to buy the book but would truly benefit's one's learning, growth, and enhance your participation in discussions with other adoptees. If you are interested let me know so I can get your personal e-mail to enroll you as a participant. No fees, no former church affiliation or bible study skills required, no tests, Just great discussions, sharing, emotional support, encouragement and prayer. No guilt, just GRACE. There will not be any pressure - voluntary sharing.
You can go at your own pace and do both the reading of the book and the audio sessions or just listen to the sessions and then join in on discussing the lessons in regards to the adoptee experience. Don't miss out- a great opportunity for a studying God's Word, fellowship with other adoptees, and growing in grace and emotional and spiritual maturity. A safe place to share. Hope many of you will prayerfully consider joining me!! 8 adoptees have already signed up as of this posting!
Blessings, Jody

There is still time to sign up for the Adoptee online Bible study beginning in a week- the week of Jan. 23rd, 2011- A Grace-filled atmosphere of voluntary sharing, studying God's Word, no pressure, sharing our experiences as adoptees and gleaning much from Becky Harling's book, ReWriting Your Emotional Script- a 10 week study mostly geared for women- on the Beatitudes. A wonderful opportunity for adoptees to connect, share their adoption/reunion experiences while we study God's Word and watch and pray as God encourages us to rewrite our emotional scripts.
Don't miss out- feel free to share this with adoptees 18 and up that you may know online.
I have facilitated adoption triad support groups for 15 years in IN and currently in the Chicagoland area.
Looking forward to a great study, and also look forward to listening to the archived audio sessions with the author that we will listen to one each week- I will send each participant the link.
No fee, just PM me if you are interested in joining us!
Blessings, Jody
