Now that we are full-tilt into the presidential election season, the Adult Spiritual Formation Commission was wondering how we could help people rise above the seemingly irreconcilable divisions they have over candidates and issues. We discovered an organization known as Braver Angels, a bipartisan group whose purpose is to “depolarize” the political landscape and encourage honest and respectful conversation between people who may strongly disagree. Their goal is not to change people’s views of the issues, but to change their views of each other.

Braver Angels has given thoughtful presentations in schools, churches, and businesses around the country to encourage everyone, whether left or right, red or blue, to identify their own biases and look for common ground amid disagreements. On September 25, a Braver Angels representative will come to Grace and share the group’s guiding principles as well as lead discussions that may just broaden our political perspective. Specific candidates or policies will not be discussed — only a framework for conversation.
