“Our faith leaders who were at the workshop talked about bringing these tools back to their own denominations to seek a unity that goes beyond uniformity,” @MSchaapPierce said. @RNS describes our work with Christian Churches Together. bit.ly/3VaHNj2

In this season, many cultures light lights in darkness - with strings of light, menorahs, and bonfires. Many mystical traditions teach that this – in a nutshell – is human purpose: to illuminate the darkness, to uncover and augment light. Wishing all celebrating a Happy Hanukkah!

#Hollywood producers & writers envisioning integrating RTT’s tools into their shows and content. May they translate us to each other; disrupt our groupthink; shine a light on our humanity; revive curiosity, healthy conflict, and hope. May they tell the stories we most need!

.@MSchaapPierce, executive director of Christian Churches Together, says @Resettingtable workshop helped CCT leaders “to better understand one another. And to really seek a unity that goes beyond uniformity.” @RNS story: religionnews.com/2022/12/15/in-…
