Life can be difficult, and sometimes we need a little extra help. These groups are there to help and support you during some of life’s most difficult times.
COBC Divorce Care
DivorceCare is a Biblical support group centered around videos featuring top experts on divorce and recovery. This is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences. Don’t go through separation or divorce alone. DivorceCare seminars and support groups are led by people who understand what you are going through and want to help. You’ll gain access to valuable DivorceCare resources to help you deal with the pain of the past and look forward to rebuilding your life.
What to Expect: Each session begins with a discussion about the daily devotionals on the previous week’s topic. After watching the video, the topics in the video are discussed. The sessions are facilitated by 3-4 leaders who have healed from their divorces and are called to support and encourage others going through divorce or separation. The goal is to draw hurting people into a closer relationship with their Great Physician who ultimately brings the healing.
The Next Session will begin Sunday, September 13. Click here to view current group information on the DivorceCare website.

No matter what the circumstances, grief recovery is a painful process. It can make feeling optimistic about the future seem impossible. If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member or friend, you’ve probably found that there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel.
That’s one reason for Grief Share, a special support group for people grieving the loss of someone close. This group is sponsored by people who understand what you are experiencing and want to offer comfort and encouragement during this difficult time. It’s a place where many people have found that they can begin putting their lives back together again.
Grief Share features nationally recognized experts on grief and recovery topics. Sessions include:
- Living with Grief
- The Journey of Grief
- The Effects of Grief
- When Your Spouse Dies
- Your Family and Grief
- Why?
- The Uniqueness of Grief, Part 1
- The Uniqueness of Grief, Part 2
- God’s Prescription for Grief
- Stuck in Grief
- Top Twenty Lessons of Grief, Part 1
- Top Twenty Lessons of Grief, Part 2
- Heaven
Each session is “self-contained” so that you don’t feel obligated to attend in sequence. You will find encouragement and help whenever you attend.
Griefshare meets in the Chapel at Country Oaks Baptist Church, Tuesday evenings at 6:00pm. For more information, call the church office at 661.822.1379. Join any time!
