“This book sneaks up on you. Its gentle tone creates a space for learning about self and others—a  soul-space where risks may be taken, relationships deepened, and change navigated in grace-filled ways. Bill Kondrath invites congregations into a new way of being together in the midst of differences, and offers a sturdy guidebook for leaders who need help ‘walking the talk’  of inclusion and hospitality.”
