Help your church find hope in difficult relationships.
As a pastor or ministry leader, you've likely walked alongside people who feel stuck in the same painful patterns year after year. After enough disappointment, people often stop expecting anything different.
At The Colossian Forum, we help Christians engage conflict in ways that form us more deeply into the likeness of Christ. As you support people through conflict, you may find yourself asking this question too: How do we help people see that God may still be at work in a relationship they've nearly given up on?
Introducing The Beholding Workbook
The Beholding Workbook is a 56-page guide designedfor those relationships where hope is wearing thin.
Through guided exercises, reflections, scripture readings, and prayers, it invites small groups to practice beholding: learning to see another person as God sees them.
Difficult relationships often feel isolating. The Beholding small group bundle allows groups to reflect, pray, and practice a new way of seeing together.
Here are some of the practical ways this workbook will help groups grow:
Uncover the assumptions shaping how you see a difficult person in your life, and why they might be keeping you stuck.
Learn how to respond in conflict from a place of peace instead of fear or frustration.
Practice ways to stay open and curious, even when conversations get tense.
Get clear on a faithful next step, knowing your limits and trusting God.
What is included in the small group bundle?
When you order the small group bundle, you will receive:
Permission to share a PDF copy of The Beholding Workbook with up to 10 small group participants
A PDF copy of the Facilitator Guide with:
Guidance on your role as a small group facilitator
A simple rhythm for each session
Practical tips for leading meaningful conversations
Template emails for communication with your small group
We pray this workbook encourages meaningful conversations in your church and helps people practice hope, even when relationships remain difficult.
In Christ,
