All of us are acutely aware that the next few months will be a crucial season for calm, honest leadership within the communities we live and serve. The political environment is charged with anxiety and fear in ways we haven’t seen in quite a while, if ever, and we will be called to engage that environment with grace, truth, and wisdom.
We’ve assembled some resources to inform and support you in this work. If you encounter articles, podcasts, or other resources you believe could be useful to your congregations, please email them to Gretchen Ahrens or to the synod office to bring them to our attention.
Thank you for all you’re already doing to help the political temperature in your local congregations, and we hope that the resources we’re providing can be an aid to you in that continuing work.
