Binge Worthy Viewing

Granville, OH

The way in which we watch programming has changed. We viewers (audience members) are no longer waiting week after week for the next installment - or not just waiting for weekly installments. With the popularity of Netflix, Prime, etc. programs are available to be watched one episode after another. The fact of this allows the viewers to see old series in a new light and to see series which never aired on broadcast tv, plus the added advantage of skipping commercials.

This group is for people who enjoy finding interesting programs and films (such as Stranger Things, or Forever) to watch. For those who may stay up night after night to see all the episodes of Breaking Bad. People who are no longer satisfied with the quality of entertainment being offered on broadcast tv.

I’d like to invite you to join me for some food and beverages while we briefly discuss what we’ve watched recently and we’ll conclude with a short look at new program suggestions.

Mount Vernon Recovery from Religion Meetup Group

Mount Vernon, OH

Doubt your beliefs? Have questions about changing or leaving your faith? You are not alone. We are here to help. Learning how to live after questions, doubts, and changing beliefs is a journey. We at Recovering from Religion are intimately familiar with this path and are here to help you to cross that bridge. Our mission is to provide hope, healing, and support to those struggling with doubt or non-belief, and to those who suffer from harm related to religion. The primary focus of a Recovering From Religion support group is to provide ongoing peer support to individuals as they let go of their religious beliefs. This transitional period is an process that can result in a range of emotions, as well as a ripple effect of consequences throughout an individual’s life. As such the support meetings are safe and anonymous places to express these doubts, fears, and experiences without biased feedback or proselytizing. These groups are free, small group style meetings. No professional therapist is present, group leaders are volunteers trained in peer support. Attendees are not required to give a real name or show their faces on camera, although some do. Attendees will be invited, but not required, to talk about themselves and their experiences. Be aware that trolls sometimes appear. The group leader will make every effort to eject anyone behaving badly as quickly as possible. For safety, we recommend that attendees do not display their full names and do not give identifying details about themselves. Extra Support: RfR has an immense database of well-curated digital resources collected on all topics related to doubt, non-belief, and transition out of religion. www.recoveringfromreligion.org/resources If you find you need to talk with someone before the meeting date, RfR has a Helpline with phone and online chat for that express purpose. Go to www.recoveringfromreligion.org to find the phone number for your area or to chat online. If you’re seeking professional help, we can offer the Secular Therapy Project to provide options to connect with a professional therapist. All therapists have been thoroughly vetted by our organization and offer only evidence-based and non-religious treatment. Connect with them at www.seculartherapy.org.
