A guided reading experience. We move through a book together — slowly, honestly — and let it become a mirror for our own story with God.
about Formation Book Groups
Presence over performance.
You don’t need polished insight or the right theological language. Some weeks you’ll show up with clarity; other weeks with just a question, or a knot in your chest you can’t quite name yet. Both are welcome.
We’re not gathering to impress each other. We’re gathering to let the words on the page gently loosen what we’ve been carrying alone.
Meet Chrissy Lynn
Your Formation Book Group Guide
Chrissy Lynn holds a Master’s in Spiritual Formation & Direction and is a certified Spiritual Director. She’s spent two decades helping people move truth from their heads into their hearts — and believes a good book, read slowly and honestly, can do some of that work better than a sermon ever could.
Her passion is bearing witness to people who’ve spent years learning about God finally learning to be with Him. Chrissy Lynn will hold space for your questions and invite you to let the book become a mirror.
TWO COHORTS THIS FALL
Same terrain, different room.
Whether you join us for an evening or bring the experience to your own group, you’ll be invited to slow down, make something with your hands, and let it become prayer.
Landscapes of the Soul
Anxious. Avoidant. Chaotic. Secure. The Holsclaw’s name four landscapes our faith can live in — shaped by the attachment patterns we carried long before we ever met God.
Together, we’ll learn to recognize our own terrain and walk the path toward what the authors call the pasture: a life of deep, secure attachment to the God who has never let go.
Who: For women who sense their faith has been shaped more by old wounds than they’d like to admit — and want language, not just longing, for finding their way to steadier ground.
When: Thursdays at 6:30 pm ET.
Sacred Attachment
Explore how your earliest relational patterns shape the way you connect with God today. Using insights from attachment theory and spiritual formation, we’ll gently uncover the hidden barriers to intimacy with God — and begin healing them.”
Who: For men curious how their relational story shapes their spiritual life — especially anyone who’s felt distant from God despite deep longing.
When:
Never miss a season.
Have a Question?
What happens in a Book Study session?
Each week moves through a simple rhythm: we open in prayer, discuss that week’s reading, and reflect together on where we recognize our own story in it. We close with a practice or question to carry into the week ahead.
Do I need to have read the whole book first?
No. You’ll get a simple reading schedule when you sign up, so you’ll read alongside the group each week—not racing to catch up before it starts. Come as you are, even if that means you’re only a few pages in.
Is this group therapy?
No. This is a spiritual formation group, not clinical therapy or counseling, and Chrissy Lynn is not a licensed therapist. Some material can surface real emotion, and that’s normal. If something comes up that feels bigger than the group can hold, we’ll gently point you toward additional support. If you’re already working with a therapist, this group can be a meaningful companion to that work, not a replacement for it.
What do I need to bring or prepare?
Just your own copy of that season’s book and a willingness to be honest. A journal isn’t required, but many people find it helpful for the weekly reflection.
What does it meet and what does it cost?
Schedule and pricing vary by cohort — you’ll find current details on each group’s listing above.
Your Next Chapter Starts Here.
Whatever season you're in, there's a group reading through it with you. Come with your real questions and let a book do what it's meant to do: not just inform you, but form you.
