Difficult Conversations in the Parish

Instructor: Mark Paustian

Description:
This course will lay a theoretical and practical foundation in the thorny matter of interpersonal conflict. On the basis of the best of both secular and Christian scholarship, this will be a highly interactive experience featuring case studies and role plays that involve the most difficult conversations participants have had to navigate in their professional and personal lives. This study will be grounded in the deep Christian optimism that we find in the words of Jesus: "Where two or three come together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."
