Curated Resources on Faith & Belonging

Many congregations and individual church members believe they are very “welcoming.” But in a world where loneliness is an epidemic, are we really? This month’s theme will explore pathways to belonging in faith communities and particular practices that can help. 

We’ll consider the church’s website as its “front door,” look at the experience of visitors through design thinking, and practice translating insider language into words those with no experience of church can use and understand.
