​MENDING DIVISION TED Talk Series on Healing our Relationships and Strenghtening our Communities. Please join us for the second conversation in our three-part series of TED Talks on Friday, April 10th at 7:00 pm in Fellowship Hall. Each of the three talks addresses practical principles and practices for restoring strained relationshiops and strenthening communities but feel free to attend only one or all three. In this next installment, Julia Dhar discusses how the strategies of formal debate can help us separate people from ideas in How to Disagree Productively and Find Common Ground. You don't need to watch the video in advance but maybe think about something you changed your mind about and why. There is a sign-up sheet in the Narthex and we will have pizza and snacks (small donations appreciated). Mark your calendar for the final talk in the series on Friday, May 8th.
