“The most accurate measure of courage is Vulnerability.” (Brene Brown)
Industry Award Winning for being Top 10% course globally, How to Live the Power of Vulnerability is choosing safe connection rather than safe distance in our relationships, leadership, communities, families and faith communities.
With people admitting “We love the idea of navigating how to live/thrive/do community in this new world, but to be honest we’ve become very comfortable in our isolation. It’s a challenge to get back into community and give of ourselves.” Loneliness is now at epidemic levels in the Western world.
Courage to connect is one of our greatest social needs.
For connection to happen, we must be vulnerable. This doesn’t mean we have to wear our heart on our sleeve. Vulnerability without boundaries is fear and anxiety. So what then is vulnerability and how do we do connection?

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT and WHERE DOES THIS FIT WITH FAITH?
The Bible is an account of a God who has stopped at nothing to get connection back with us. The centre piece of this story is vulnerability. The choice Jesus made to become human, was a choice for vulnerability. Jesus valued vulnerability and did vulnerability. His humanity was intrinsically tied to it. He knew full well the risk, uncertainty and emotional exposure of showing up as He was, the Son of God!
I don’t believe we are going to move forward in any area of our life without having a strong value and committment to vulnerability. It is our way home to authenticity. Vulnerability and connection is at the heart of the Gospel of Jesus. Not only does our faith hinge on vulnerability, but we are not going to build strong healthy counter culture faith communities without it.
