Respectful Conversation

You cannot predict beforehand the results of a respectful conversation.

Disillusioned with the state of public discourse in contemporary society, including the realm of politics, the media, and many churches and educational institutions, Harold Heie started a project hosting a number of electronic conversations about various topics.

The mission of Heie's project has two components:

• To model respectful conversations regarding controversial contemporary issues.
• To encourage others to initiate their own forums for respectful conversation about important contemporary issues and to assist in facilitating such additional forums.

Subjects to date:

• Following Jesus (currently ongoing)
• Human Sexuality
• Reforming Political Discourse
• Alternative Political Conversation
• American Evangelicalism
