Hopeful Resilience
“We are pleased to have Gordon T. Smith (Executive Director, Christian Higher Education Canada (CHEC); Teaching Fellow, Regent College Vancouver) lead us in reflecting on how we can move from pseudo positivity and subtle cynicism to a growing confidence in the possibilities of grace. Come join us in the beautiful vistas of Whistler, BC to encourage one another in our work as educational leaders, and learn strategies for lowering anxiety levels and growing in our capacity to do what we have been called to do – with patience, joy, and courage.”
