One Anothering: Let’s Choose Each Other In a Politically Divided World

A hopeful alternative to political division. Learn to stay connected across deep differences without compromising your core convictions.
About this Event

Many people today feel trapped between two unsatisfying options: join the political outrage or stay silent. Polarization has strained friendships, divided families, fractured communities, and left many feeling powerless.

One Anothering offers another way.

Developed by The Colossian Forum, this interactive workshop helps participants navigate political and social differences with greater courage, wisdom, and love. Drawing on Christian practices of self-examination, hospitality, and faithful presence, participants will learn how to recognize their own patterns, engage difficult conversations more hopefully, and remain connected to others even amid profound disagreement.

This is not a workshop about changing your political beliefs. It is a workshop about becoming the kind of person who can engage disagreement without fear, contempt, or withdrawal.

Participants will leave with practical tools for difficult conversations, a deeper understanding of themselves and others, and renewed hope that a different way of living together is possible.
