I Survived a Cult . . . and What I Learned with Stephen Bross

The power of scripture and charismatic leadership drew Stephen Bross into a radical fundamentalist church while he was an undergrad at Columbia University. And it was the power of scripture that also brought Stephen back to mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Join Stephen Bross at Althea Center on March 12th as he shares what unfolded for him along that path, and some of the wisdom and insights he gained, which he believes have great significance for our lives and our times. Our mind can be our biggest enemy or our greatest ally - the question is, how can we become the master, not the servant, of our mind, and step more fully into our greatness?

All are welcome. Stay for our community lunch directly afterwards! We'll also have an in-person Deep Dive at 12:30 pm with Stephen Bross to explore the Sunday message further.

If you are unable to physically attend, we will also live-stream our gathering on our Facebook page starting at 10:30am MT. Make sure you turn on notifications for Althea on Facebook so you can be notified as soon as we go live. During the gathering, we invite you to submit your prayers, comments, and feedback.
