Reconcile Chapter 9 Finale

Let’s Talk About Culture: Reconcile Chapter 9 Finale
"The bridge between deep hurt and healing often comes through some form of the arts."

Kimberly Lewis: Welcome to the finale of Let’s Talk About Culture. We are reading Reconcile. We have made it to Chapter 9. We are excited this evening. I am Kimberly Lewis, your host at Let’s Talk About Culture. And this is bittersweet for me. It is July 30th, it is the close of our summer book study series and I am so excited, over-related. We have a surprise guest on today. This is like a blessing from God, that’s what I’m gonna call it ‘cause it is. And I’m just honored to learn with you all this summer.

Again, our norms. Let’s Talk About Culture is a group of individuals and teams who want to sharpen their tools. We are reading the book Reconcile by John Paul Lederach. And we are not critiquing the work, we take a deeper dive into the work of resources that will help us have a diverse mindset, heart, and a diverse lens as we walk into this complex world that we live in today…
