We talk a lot about being in covenant, but what does that actually mean in practice? Covenant means that we promise one another to be in the kind of relationship where we practice clear communication, work through our differences, and be willing to resolve misunderstandings and conflicts with grace, vulnerability, and accountability.
In February we are offering a 3-part “Skill-Up” series (in place of our Theme-based reflection circles) to explore the “A-B-Cs” of covenant: Awareness of our interpersonal dynamics, healthy Boundaries around each other and the community as a whole, and skills for better Communication to help us develop more trusting and deeper relationships.
Each session (starting at 10:00 am in Hobbs Hall — coffee will be available!) will include a 15-minute “Skill-Up” followed by a half hour of discussion/practice in small groups. We encourage you to attend as many sessions as possible (as they build on one another) but we want you to attend as many as you can!
Please pre-register so we can plan for handouts and materials: https://forms.gle/w1KB5gHWHui2YpN58
Based on the book Set Boundaries, Find Peace: A Guide to Reclaiming Yourself by Nedra Glover Tawwab (we’ll have a few lending copies available) which is highly recommended but not required to participate.
