EBO IV Workshop 1 The way of Love

The darkest days of the year and the dark atmosphere we sense in the daily news needs an antidote. Perhaps the text of 1 Cor 13 can inspire us. Is there any connection with Christmas in it? We use playful methods and creative impulses to explore and discover. We will send you a small preparatory task and we will have a creative “after” sharing. Let us walk the way to Christmas together. Date 21. December 2022, 19 – 21 CET
(perhaps a little bit longer, depending on the participants) Information about workshop-leaders Jes Bouwen was working as a religion teacher and as a voluntary prison pastor. She is addicted to bibliodrama since 2004 as a facilitator and as a bibliodrama trainer, in Belgium and in the EBN. Anne Coussement once was a religion teacher, but for more than ten years she worked as a hospital pastor. She also started her bibliodrama adventure in 2004. She is an expert in creative and out-of-the-box working and loves to experiment with new technics. Jes and Anne founded a small organization Het Leerke (little ladder) working with bibliodrama, designing workshops, training and rituals. The changing social context of different religions and the search for the meaning of life is their playground.

Workshop 3 The Blessing of Merciful God Luke 1:46-55

One of the songs I grow up with, in the church, used to say that ”the rich ones have become poor and hungry, but those who seek the Lord will not lack all good things…” We will come together on the Online Bibliodrama Session in 4th of January to enjoy together the ”seek of Lord” (search for God) so that we never lack the ”Good Things”. And then, being drowned into peace and love, tasting the blessings over generations, to be able to remain merciful, humbly and grateful for everything that comes over us on our paths, in our lives. The Bibliodrama Workshop on the text presented will go through different methods and instruments that can fit online meetings and will be facilitated by Beata and Maria.

Workshop 5 Love without limits? How far is unreachable? How can we escape from an unpleasant task? In times of globalization and networking this becomes more and more difficult. Even in Jonah’s time it was impossible when the one who gives you a task is such a universal one. What if a prophet does not believe in the prophecy? Could one resist and yet be loved? Beyond the classic ideal, love has so many faces and does not always take the straight path – where are its limits? Are there limits? On 2 evenings we invite you on
a journey with Jonah. We are going to look into it and reflect with bibliodramatic and creative methods. We will work with the book of Jonah. You will get detailed information shortly before the workshop. The workshop includes two meetings via Zoom, and perhaps a voluntary input for the time between the two meetings.

Workshop 9 Charity, Cross or Creation? Does God’s love still have purchasing power in a time of climate change? God’s love that never ends, is becoming increasingly difficult as climate change directly harms the poor, threatens future generations and damages God’s creation. Since climate related changes are taking place around the world, we
invite participants to explore creation and justice in the context of climate change. We want to look at it from the perspective of scripture, tradition, reason and from your own experience in an attempt to assess the physical and spiritual implications of climate change.
