FCUCC Forum Reminder

This Sunday at 9, June 26 - LISTENING: I know you believe you understand what you think I said. by Joan Kahn-Schneider.

"If I were to put the cure to all of the world's ills in one simple sentence, I would say, 'People don't listen to each other'. It has always been thus, and doesn't seem to be getting any better. Listening is a skill that can be learned, an art that can be mastered. Discover the tools and techniques to hear what you have been missing. Learn the ways people take in information, what affects our ability to listen and why we don't listen. Let's talk about it. Better yet, let's listen to one another."

Joan Kahn-Schneider is a retired Unitarian-Universalist minister who has served congregations in Michigan, Ohio and New York. For two years she was Director for Ministerial Education in the UU Association. She has degrees from Antioch College, United Theological Seminary and Antioch New England Graduate School. Before ministry, Joan raised four children, was a family therapist and owned and operated a neighborhood bookstore. Active in retirement, she has spoken and consulted internationally, facilitated conflict resolution and organizational health. Recently back in Hendersonville, Joan says she will never leave again because she loves it here.
