9 Asks : Creating Safer And More Courageous Spaces
$3.25
Kimberly Brazwell’s concept of the “nine asks” lays out the practical expectations we should bring to communal engagement and explains how healing from trauma is the responsibility of communities, not simply individuals.
Organizations have a responsibility to ensure that people who come there to work, worship, or volunteer won’t experience harm.
Creating a safe space is easier said than done. People bring to their organizations their own personal and communal trauma, and others may bring assumptions and behaviors that cause further hurt and offense. Kimberly Danielle’s concept of the “nine asks” lays out the practical expectations we should bring to communal engagement and explains how healing from trauma is the responsibility of communities, not simply individuals.
Among the nine asks are:
*Be honest and vulnerable
*Respect boundaries
*Offer no judgment
*Maintain confidentiality
*Respect the process of learning the right language
*Take the time to listen first
With Danielle’s explanation of these principles-supported by stories and examples from the myriad teams she has coached-your church, nonprofit, or business will be well equipped to create a culture that truly supports and empowers people to be their best, healthiest selves.

Ruthless Trust : The Ragamuffins Path To God
$14.99We are made for the love of God, and nothing less will ever satisfy us. In his acclaimed bestseller, The Ragamuffin Gospel, Brennan Manning showed us the powerful truth that the divine gifts of love is ever present for us regardless of the state of our lives. Now in this challenging sequel, he turns to our primary obstacle to living fully within this divine love — the lack of “ruthless trust.”
Through rich stories and deep insights, Manning shows us how true and radical trust can transform everything in our lives. No matter where we are on our path of discipleship, he offers encouragement to shed the limitations of fear, shame, and doubt through complete reliance upon God. The way of Ruthless Trust is not an abstract theory; it is that very practical and demanding path that each of us must follow in response to God’s love.
