They believe Christians are called to be God’s ambassadors, which necessarily entails the need to listen to those around us—especially people with diverse and different perspectives. In End the Stalemate, you will be able to revive the art of meaningful conversations by walking through:
- How to create connection and emotional awareness that opens the door for a fair exchange of ideas and effective communication;
- How to engage in perspective-taking, as illustrated in Scripture in a number of stories;
- How to speak the truth in love, from a biblical understanding;
- How to structure a conversation with those who hold diverse, and/or seemingly threatening, views; and
- How to honor the words and perspective of those with whom we disagree.
