In this 4-session, you’ll learn what it means to manage in a Not-For-Profit (NFP) organization. Whether you’re wondering about making a career change to do such meaningful work, how it differs from church management and leadership, or wanting to be a better church manager (e.g., parish administrator or clergy leader) or lay leader (e.g., senior warden), this training is a great opportunity to enhance your skills.

This short course explores the interplay of Howard Thurman and August Wilson as prophetic voices. The course will focus on four Wilson plays, accompanied by examinations of Thurman’s spiritual foundation for social change. These August Wilson plays were chosen because in each there is a transforming power of transcendent forces.

In today's increasingly polarized world, church leaders often find themselves at the crossroads of social, political, and cultural divides. This workshop is designed to equip church leaders with practical tools and strategies to foster open, respectful conversations within their faith communities.
