Reflection Questions

1. Talk about what has reinforced your beliefs.

2. Have you ever had conversations with people whose beliefs are very different from your own? What did you learn from them? What did you find attractive, threatening, strange, or unsettling? Was this conversation hard for you? Energizing? Frustrating?

Thank you! Thank you!
