Are difficult conversations, or avoiding them, draining your energy and hindering your ministry? This workshop offers a refreshing approach to conflict engagement. Learn how to approach the situation through reframing, communicate effectively, and discover redemptive purposes. Join us to gain some tools to help you build stronger relationships, create a culture of unity, and transform conflict into a catalyst for positive change.
