Bridging the red/blue divide in our families, faith communities, and beyond Our third season of storytelling and conversation on issues we all care about brings together people with rich spiritual backgrounds and diverse perspectives to share their personal stories and invite you into the conversation. These days congregations in all faith traditions in the United States are grappling with complicated issues that bring out strong feelings.  Rather than avoiding the difficult conversations, some leaders have chosen to create space and guidelines to address them together.  Which strategies are working?  What needs to be in place for continued success?   How do leaders get training and build support to do this work?  Our storytellers will share their experiences.    Click on Speaker image to read Biography.

Bridging the red-blue divide in our families, faith communities, and beyond   Welcome to our third season of storytelling and conversation on complex issues we all care about. Once again, The Guibord Center and IslamiCity are bringing together people with rich spiritual backgrounds and diverse perspectives to share powerful stories from the heart and invite you into the conversation. We’ve all been there–that moment when we realize that our political disagreements with someone we care for are so profound that we wonder how we will be able to keep the relationship going.  In those moments, what kind of guidance can we find in our spiritual traditions to make important decisions about whether to stick with it, take a break or bring it to a close?  Our storytellers will share their experiences and the wisdom they have leaned on in those challenging moments.  Our Moderator and  Speakers for this event:   REGISTER
