WHAT'S COVERED  

SESSION 1: Busting the Myths: God’s Truth for Cultural Conflict

Culturally shaped “rules” about conflict can influence how we react and sometimes this can stop us from living out the gospel. This session uncovers four common conflict myths common in East Asian (and many other) cultures, explores their biblical alternatives and equips participants to respond with wisdom and grace.

SESSION 2: Face to Face: Restoring Honour, Building Trust

In many cultures including many East Asian, “saving face” is central to relationships. Misunderstandings around this can deepen hurt or cause avoidance. This session explores the biblical concept of “face” and how to engage in ways that preserve dignity, strengthen trust and open doors for honest and healing conversations.

SESSION 3. Honest Conversations that Cross Cultures and Generations

Even in loving communities, care can get lost in translation. This session equips leaders with practical tools for navigating differences—whether between cultures or generations so conversations build connection rather than conflict. Application of principles will be made specifically to East Asian cultures.
