Communication, Effective Disagreement, and the Fall into Conflict
Wednesday, January 22, 2025
7:00 – 8:30 p.m. on Zoom
Facilitator: Dr. Betty Pries
Staff Facilitators: Diane Matheson-Jimenez and Melody Duncanson-Hales
Due to high demand, “Where two or three are gathered, there is Jesus and Conflict” is back!
Challenges emerge in congregational life when healthy disagreements tip over into conflict and entrenchment. Disagreeing well becomes especially challenging in the context of change or when the reality of change thrusts the congregation into discord. This session defines disagreement and conflict, considers the impact of change, and lays down root principles that support conflict’s transformation.
This webinar is to support and strengthen congregational lay leaders as well ministry personnel as they reflect on their church context, learn about congregational health, explore and identify their own community of faith’s path to healing and wellness, deepen their understanding of their own call to leadership, and discern God’s path for their churches.
We hope you can join us!
