Belonging Starts with Conversation

Living Room Conversation connects people across divides and within communities to build understanding through conversation. This Sunday gathering is structured to increase understanding, reveal common ground and allow us to discuss possible solutions. Living Room Conversations use conversation guides with a structured format to help people with different viewpoints and experiences build understanding. There will be 4-6 other people at a round table. It is not a debate and the goal is not to change one another’s opinion. There are Conversation Agreements like “Listen and Be Curious” and “Show Respect and Suspend Judgment” that create the framework for diving into the questions. The questions are designed to draw out our personal experiences rather than opinions around the topic. The overall purpose is to learn more about the experiences others have and build a sense of community. Come join the conversation.
