How can we promote unity and understanding in our organizations when it feels like people are more divided than ever? In this episode, Alex talks with Josh Butler, a pastor, leader and author of the new book “The Party Crasher: How Jesus Disrupts Politics as Usual and Redeems Our Partisan Divide.” Josh unpacks his framework for understanding the different political “regions” people fall into, reminding us that each leaning has its strengths, as long as we don’t make it an idol. He then shares practical advice and examples for leaders about what it might look like to engage with people in different political camps, make yourself accessible for questions and conversations, and create an environment that fosters unity.
