About this Event

Workshop Overview

If you don't have your health, you don't have anything," as the Princess Bride reminded a generation of moviegoers. But what about when it's your spouse, child, parent, or friend whose health has imploded? God designed us for relational connection, and when one person's life is turned upside down by pervasive medical struggles their loved ones are deeply affected as well. This workshop will identify significant struggles faced by these loved ones and offer critical steps in providing holistic care for those whose lives has also taken a turn they didn't expect."
