Here are resources that people have recommended on Facebook that could be useful to leaders of congregations:

• Kathy Burek, president of the Prairie Star District Board of Trustees, recommends the book Getting to Yes by Roger Fisher and William Ury. “It’s been my favorite conflict-resolution book for decades.” UUA Trustee John Blevins recommends a 19-minute video talk on it by Ury.

• UUA Moderator Gini Courter recommends an online column by Bruce Epperly, author and theology professor, about taking our faith seriously and reclaiming Christian education.

• The Rev. Mark Stringer of the First Unitarian Church of Des Moines, Iowa, holds up a YouTube video on Friedman’s Theory of Differentiated Leadership Made Simple, by Edwin Friedman. Stringer notes, “This is really good . . . and clear. Your seven minutes will be very well spent.”
• The Rev. Rosemary Bray McNatt, of New York City’s Fourth Universalist Society, and others shared a link from the Huffington Post: “10 Mistakes White People Make When Talking About Race.”
