  • A Shared Path Forward: Consensus Building in the Church

    Zoom

    In the church, we are called to be one in the body of Christ… how does that translate when we are sitting at a conference table trying to decide whether to build a new Sanctuary, where to allocate the budget, or who to hire to disciple our kids? It would be easy to “take a stand” on any one of these real-life decisions – but consensus building requires a different approach of deep listening, creativity, and a willingness to recognize Christ in one another…even when we don’t agree.

  • Safer Sanctuaries Training

    Zoom

    Every United Methodist congregation is required to have a Safer Sanctuaries policy — but this is more than paperwork. Safer Sanctuaries is a way of being in ministry. It’s a movement to make our churches safe places for children, youth, vulnerable adults, and the people who minister with them. This training will give you the theological grounding, practical tools, and hands-on experience to help your congregation not only have a policy but also make it central to the life of the church.
