Fall Book Study: Learning to Disagree

August 3, 2024 FPC Sylva

It’s no secret that we live in divisive, polarizing times as Christians and as Americans. How can we move forward with wisdom, courage, humility, and hope? Thankfully, John Inazu’s Learning to Disagree has much to offer. Join us as we study this thoughtful and inspiring book on Wednesday nights this fall at First Presbyterian Church. We will meet at 6:00pm in our Fellowship Hall, spend some time in small breakout groups, then come together for large group discussion and prayer. We can’t promise easy answers, but we can strive for deeper understanding in love. Need childcare? Please notify the church office.

Study Schedule:

  • 8/21 – Preface and Ch. 1: How do we learn empathy?

  • 8/28 – Ch. 2: Can we know what’s fair?

  • 9/11 – Ch. 3 & 4: What happens when we can’t compromise? and Can we have difficult conversations?

  • 9/18 – Ch 5: Can we see people instead of problems?

  • 9/25 – Zoom Call with John Inazu

  • 10/09 – Ch. 6 & 7: Can we trust faith? and Can anything be neutral?

  • 10/16 – Ch. 8: Where is the line between wrong and evil?

  • 10/23 – Ch. 9: Is forgiveness possible?

  • 10/30 – Ch. 10: Can we be friends? and Epilogue
