Mending the Heart, Healing the Soul: A Path to Love and Reconnection
Dr Wei-Jen Huang
Our God is a relational God, and the center of biblical teaching is about loving God and loving people. Love may be the most important but most difficult lesson in life. It can give us life’s greatest joy, but it can also bring us the deepest pain. C.S. Lewis once said: “Love anything and your heart will certainly be wronged and possibly be broken”. When we allow our hearts to really get close to people, we will surly experience disappointments, loss and hurt. However, it is also through this courageous journey of vulnerability and pain, we get to experience God’s wisdom, grace and healing, through which we develop spiritual depth, compassion for other’s pain, getting a deeper understanding of ourselves and people, and eventually we can build solid, authentic relationships. In this session, through lecture, case example and experiential learning, I would like to explore with all of us themes related to empathy rupture and repair, emotional safety, forgiveness and development a healthier, compassionate self.
