This episode introduces a new partnership between the Northwestern Synod and Place for Hope offering free mediation, facilitated conversations, and one-to-one conflict coaching to help churches handle disputes, long-standing hotspots, and difficult conversations constructively.
Listeners learn how the service works, how to refer a case (contact the Synod clerk Claire MacIntyre or Programme Lead Martha Hunt), the confidential process, and the benefits of early intervention to restore relationships and strengthen church communities.
