Stories That Shape Us: Psychological Insights from the Bible

This six‑session course explores key psychological experiences through biblical figures from the Old and New Testaments. Participants examine themes such as facing uncertainty, forming identity, managing emotional exhaustion, healing through relationships, and learning from failure. Through the stories of figures like Abraham, Mary, Moses, Peter, Elijah, Ruth, and David, the sessions connect biblical narratives with psychological insights about human growth and resilience. The programme emphasises how trust reduces anxiety, responsibility shapes identity, rest restores balance, relationships foster healing, and forgiveness transforms shame into personal growth. Participants are encouraged to reflect on their own experiences and develop healthier ways of responding to life’s challenges.
