The Center: Spring Emotional Growth Series – Session 1
Session 1: Hope – Discernment & Truth
February 10, 2026 | 5:30 PM | Virtual

In Session 1 of The Center Spring Emotional Growth Series, we explored discernment, communication, and emotional wisdom through Hope’s story in Chapter 10, Hard Truths with Ms. Powers.

This live virtual experience included a guided chapter reading, quiet reflection, and interactive discussion centered around one core question:

How do we speak truth with love instead of heat?

Together, we unpacked the difference between reaction and response, how tone impacts relationships, and why emotional self-awareness matters when navigating difficult conversations.

This session was designed for teens, parents, and educators seeking honest dialogue grounded in faith and aligned with social-emotional learning.
