How to start and maintain spiritual conversations...
...without being a jerk

Check out the materials from Pastor Fred Nelson from Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Chicago, IL.  who presented a 2-hr New Connections workshop to over 70 leaders in our Synod. Thanks to Grace Lutheran (D.C.) for hosting!
     "We all know that we’re called to reach out and build relationships with those outside the church. Problem is, most of us don’t know how to actually do that without feeling extremely awkward or, even worse, being a jerk about it. This workshop is specially designed to give you practical tips, helpful techniques, and a simple process to ease you through the inevitable awkward stage with others so that you can start and maintain spiritual conversations that are meaningful, effective, and loving." (Rev. Fred Nelson, April 28th, 2018)
