Support group explores divorce-related topics

'Forgiveness'         

[JULY 12, 2006]  What does it mean to forgive my ex-spouse? Can I really learn to do that? These and other questions related to forgiveness after divorce will be answered when the DivorceCare seminar and support group meets from 7 to 9 p.m. Monday at Jefferson Street Christian Church, 1700 N. Jefferson St.

DivorceCare is a video seminar series featuring experts on divorce and recovery topics such as coping with depression and anger, financial survival, and loneliness. Each session also includes a discussion of the material presented during the video.

The video "Forgiveness" compares the emotional and physical effects of unforgiveness with the freedom and permanent healing that come through forgiving the former spouse. It features psychologist and author Robert Abarno, Ph.D., and counselor Doug Easterday, author of "Restoration Through Forgiveness."

DivorceCare will meet Mondays through July 31. Participants may join the group at any time during the 12-week series; registration is not required. Cost of the DivorceCare workbook is $12. Child care is available.
