Scenario

When religious communities avoid the hard work of true belonging

Our faith community talks a lot about being a 'beloved community' but we've never actually figured out how to handle real disagreement or conflict without people just quietly leaving. My spouse and I are realizing we don't know if this is a place where we can bring our whole selves or just the parts that fit.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group aspiring to deep community has no practice with the conflict and repair that authentic relationship requires.
