  End the Stalemate - Move Past...

  Differences of opinion have always been part of life. For decades, spouses, family members, co-workers, and neighbors have had spirited conversations about politics, social issues, religion, current events, and even sports. But what was different in the past is that these disagreements wouldn’t sever ties between family and friends.  Today, we live in an argument culture that has let to nearly a third of people reporting they have stopped talking to a friend or family member due to a disagreement and nearly two-thirds of people saying they stay quiet about their beliefs due to the fear of offending others. From cyberbullying to hate speech, workplace harassment, demonizing political language, verbal abuse, and intolerance, the vast majority of us―eighty-seven percent―no longer feel safe in public places to share our opinions. Sean McDowell and Tim Muehlhoff seek to end this stalemate. They believe Christians are called to be God’s ambassadors, which necessarily entails the need to listen to those around us―especially people with diverse and different perspectives. In End the Stalemate, you will be able to revive the art of meaningful conversations by walking through: How to create connection and emotional awareness that opens the door for a fair exchange of ideas and effective communication; How to engage in perspective-taking, as illustrated in Scripture in a number of stories; How to speak the truth in love, from a biblical understanding; How to structure a conversation with those who hold diverse, and/or seemingly threatening, views; and How to honor the words and perspective of those with whom we disagree. Yes, we live in cancel culture. But that doesn’t mean that we as Christians need to conform to our world. Instead, we can be a beacon of sanity that promotes meaningful conversations around what matters most in this life―and the next.

  We're told that freedom and opportunity are our ticket to the good life. Get out there and follow your dreams! Be the hero of your own story! Find your happiness! Live your best life! It seems that limitless possibilities await anyone with vision and willingness to hustle their way through life. 
   
   
   
  The thing is, instead of resulting in a sense of accomplishment, this limitlessness merely has us doing more and trying harder—leaving us depleted and dissatisfied. With life and faith. 
   
    
   
  Ashley Hales invites us to a better way: a more spacious life. Contrary to what we've believed, the spacious life is not found in unfettered options or accomplished by our hustle and hurry. The life we crave is found within the confines of God's loving limits. Ashley helps us recognize that when we live within these boundaries, we discover a life filled with purpose, joy, and rest. 
   
   
   
  This is the spacious life—finding true freedom within the good limits given to us by our good God.

  “I wasn’t sent to the West by Christ and the great masters of India,” Paramhansa Yogananda often told his audiences, “to dogmatize you with a new theology. Jesus himself asked Babaji to send someone here to teach you the science of Kriya Yoga, that people might learn how to commune with God directly. I want to help you toward the attainment of actual experience of Him, through your daily practice of Kriya Yoga.”
   
  He added, “The time for knowing God has come!”
  
   
  Nayaswami Devarshi is a longtime Ananda minister and Kriyacharya (authorized Kriya Yoga teacher).

  Leadership in Community is a spiritual formation curriculum that engages new or seasoned missional leaders in the foundations of missiology, leadership theory, and missional leadership practices and tools. The curriculum explores three major topics important for missional leadership, all of which build upon one another: the missiology, community, and ethics of missional leadership. These themes are explored through a spiritual formation practice called Lectio Missio, an expansion of Lectio Divina that incorporates missional themes and practices. Using Lectio Missio, small groups of missional leaders engage in Scripture reading and study, prayer, conversation, meditation, journaling, reflection, and experiential learning. These disciplines focus on spiritual formation as the basis of missional leadership training and development.
