Spring Training For Christian Educators Faith Formation in a Healthy Church
March 24, 2012 - Middleton
This event is sponsored by the Christian Education Commission and the Partners in Education of the Wisconsin Conference UCC
Churches and families form faith within a structure of relationships. Imagine aspects of the relationships in your family. The relationship aspects might be parental vs child, strong vs weak, assertive vs passive, etc. Church structure has the same characteristics as human relationship and creates the same relational power, same relational balance and imbalance, comfort and discomfort between people. Knowledge of relationships helps you to identify and to claim your strongest roles when developing your Ministry of Christian Education. read on> |
