Deep Dialogue Across Differences

How do we repair connections across seemingly irreconcilable differences and unresolved hurt feelings? Do we have to simply accept the loss of relationships – actual or possible – cutting the world into smaller and smaller slices of the people we can relate to? Our faith as Unitarian Universalists calls us to another, far more hopeful and inclusive way. The path is available to anyone bringing curiosity and goodwill!
Join us for this two Saturday morning workshop series:
Saturday, March 22: an even deeper dive than in our previous introductory workshop into understanding the mindsets that drive differing beliefs and actions and the dialogue skills that enable us to bridge those differences. We really can connect in care and mutual respect, opening the way to solutions everyone can support.
Saturday, March 29: we will apply these dialogue practices concretely, addressing unhealed hurts still present in the life of your congregation!
