Healing Congregations Discussion Companion
Because the Healing Congregations book offers so much, we created a brief Companion that can guide you on the journey. Ultimately, we trust that you will work with this book in ways that make the most meaning for you.
This Companion simply offers a few possibilities for the initial steps. Our greatest hope is that you will find healing pathways to reflect and share your own stories of hope and healing and remind people of faith how congregations nurture life (and have nurtured it for centuries) in the midst of hurt.
In the Companion Discussion Guide, you’ll find:
- Companion Guide for Clergy
- Companion Guide for Educators
- Companion Guide for Youth Leaders
- Companion Guide for Small Group Leaders
As you read through the guide, you may be curious to note that a number of these stories happen outside of congregations. This reminds us that the work of church isn’t contained to the four walls of a building. Wherever we show up with a spirit of love and hope is a way towards nurturing life in our broken and beautiful world.
