American society is fracturing as more and more families experience estrangement with their loved ones. Tensions in American public life affects their private lives and vice-versa. Americans lack a shared identity, disagree on the nation’s purposes, values, and history, and are becoming more and more intolerant of those with whom they disagree. Estrangement in private lives often leads to intense tribalism in public life. Anchored in Family Systems, the workshop is designed to help leaders understand phenomenon of estrangement, how it comes about and how can the church be a gathering place for restoration and healing.

Formerly “Clergy Clinic”
Leaders today face many challenges. In this time of increased anxiety and stress, we need leaders who focus on their own integrity, functioning, and the nature of their presence rather than look for quick-fix solutions or fancy techniques. Participants in this program will be challenged to invest in their own emotional maturity and functioning as a way to enhance their sense of calm and differentiation of self. Participants will have the opportunity to build a cohort of like-minded leaders facing similar journeys and challenges. Sign up today to experience the life change for yourself!

The Advanced Clergy Clinic meets three times per year for three successive days each session, providing nine full days of reflection on the concepts of family emotional process. The format follows the basic themes articulated in Edwin Friedman’s Generation to Generation, with reflection on the minister’s three interlocking families: the minister’s own personal family, the parishioner family, and the congregation as a family.
