Leader: Julie McCarty
Looking for ways to spend quality time with God in the midst of a busy life? During Lent, Chick Talk will be discussing the book “Sacred Rhythms: Arranging Our Lives for Spiritual Transformation” by Ruth Haley Barton. Based on gospel stories and spiritual practices of ancient Christians, we will look at such topics as longing for more, praying with Scripture, making space for God, finding God in everyday experiences, and cultivating your own sacred rhythms through the week—and having a little fun along the way. Local spiritual writer Julie McCarty will be on hand to facilitate our conversation.
FAQ’s:
- Want to preview the sessions? Visit YouTube for this introduction
- Which book do I buy? The hardbound book is very good, but at CT we will be most focused on the participant’s guide and DVD. If you don’t any of these, come anyway and we’ll share.
- What if I can’t make all the sessions? Other groups will also be discussing this program, or you can just come whenever you can make it.
- What if I’ve never been to Chick Talk? You are most welcome to come to whichever topics interest you. There’s no permanent commitment involved.
- Can I bring a friend? My teenage daughter? My mother? Yes! All are welcome.

Women of the Bible
Mondays, April 23, 30, and May 7
Thursdays, April 26 (led by Mary Kay), May 3 and 10
Leader: Mary Kay DuChene (Mondays) and Pastor Sarah (Thursdays)
Each week, we’ll take a deep look at a woman of the Bible. Join us to get to know Hannah, Miriam, and the Unknown Woman who Annoints Jesus’ Feet (not necessarily in that order!). For each, we’ll be asking questions like: Who is this woman? What was her life like? What is significant about her story? What is she saying to each of us? How can we relate to her?
Chick Talk Serves!
Mondays, May 14 and 21
Thursdays, May 17 and 24
Jesus calls us to serve the world. Chick Talk will wrap up
our year through service and socializing (at the same time!). Each week, we’ll choose an Easter Serves! community project to complete during our Chick Talk time. Even if you’ve never attended Chick Talk, please join us!!!! We want you with us!
