Awareness Conversations
Awareness conversations are an opportunity to meet with a Five Stones Global coach to dialogue and ask questions about creating a global mission context of sustainability, dignity, and possibility in Great Commission efforts around the world.
These conversations are informal, yet purposeful, in nature and can take place in a variety of ways such as conversations at a coffee shop, chats with life groups, evenings with college students, a book discussion, or one-on-one dialogues.
Some of the best discoveries happen in living rooms, at a picnic table, in the commons of a college campus, or over a cup of tea.

Social Justice 2 – How Does Spiritual Justice Play Out?
By Jean Johnson In my last post, we visited God’s heart for social justice by listening in on a conversation between a child and a parent. Additionally, we visited Isaiah 1:17, which is a clear invitation to correct oppression, bring justice to the fatherless, and plead the cause of widows. In certain periods of the […]
